Wise women whisper
Speaking salvation’s secrets
Compassionately

When
I was
A small child
I’d watch the rain
Every time it fell
In full awe of the show
Wondering when it would stop
Excited to have big puddles
Stayed on the porch until it was safe
Took off my socks and shoes and went dancing

Her life was mapped out
Via lines on her person
Charting many years
Experience left its marks
Routes traceable throughout time
