than you thought - seams can crack open,
unimagined light can pour through
at any part of your life -
things you've tended, especially,
but also what you've forgotten,
or what is given you
from the kindness of others
(from what they've tended
or maybe what they unexpectedly found)
Life can be more beautiful
than the dogged portion you've allowed yourself,
or the comfort that you've settled for,
the compromise, the resignation
Anybody's life can open up
in unexpected glory,
bringing blessing to themselves
and many others
Your life can be
the light you hoped for it -
ask and seek, and seek and ask -
it will come forth.
