Blessings
(with gratitude to Marcia Lee Faulk)
I
A Blessing for My Family
For my grandparents
of whom remembrance is a blessing
for my parents for whom gratitude
is endless
for my children, without whom
I would have so much less to bless
for my wife, Kathleen,
without whom, naught.
II
A Blessing for Friends
Blessed is breakfast
with friends --
mornings that begin
with honest chatter,
eggs and coffee
and talk that matters
as we affirm this space,
these connections,
the grace we make
of this time, this place.
