Drops of Color/ In Your House…
Drops of Color
In Your House…
(adapted from Psalm 84)
Blessed are they.
In silence, the sound of a match
struck.
The flickering candle sets off
the beauty of the flame.
The slits in the wood
allow a soft yellow tapestry
to dwell on the fixed two-by-fours.
A family is gathered around a table
—the turning of a page
then another
before a voice speaks,
“Blessed are they…”
The aroma of baking bread
rises
—a cup of blessing
passed
—enough to taste.
Thanks given
‘In Your House.’
