Welcome Home

Tulip across the street from home

Communion

This flower, with an exquisite and
delicate heart tucked inside its folds, 
looks like a an upside down wine glass 
to me, which reminded me of beautiful
words by a jazz musician and friend, 
Bill Carter, set in his song,
"Welcome Home."

The table is set,
the bread smells delicious. 
The wine is poured out
for the world.
And I know that I can’t
ever outrun such mercy...
God says right here, welcome home.
God says right now, welcome home." 

 Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
