communicate

photo by blake spencer

talk
write
whisper
sing
listen...

if you
think it
feel it...

then
most likely
there will
come a time
to share it.

and yes
there are
ways to communicate
and ways not to communicate.

i suppose
maturity
wisdom
and the sorts
has a lot to do
with how one communicates.

i don't know if i should
tell him,
write her,
let them know.

i suppose
maturity
wisdom
trust
and the sorts
has a lot to do
with how one communicates.

maturity
wisdom
trust
and sometimes risk
is what it takes.

communicate...
it's
an ongoing
everyday
thing.

i suppose if i don't
do it well today
there is always tomorrow.


prayer:

LORD who
hovered and spoke
communicate to me
your grace
and courage
that i might
use words
to pave the way
for healing
peace
joy
hope.
speak to me
fill me with your
nouns
and verbs,
your adjectives...
that i might
be good news
today.
amen.
