this fragile web: why every moment matters
it is such a delicate configuration,
this gossamer in which we place our hopes and dreams
and so it is wise never to squander gifts given,
tender mercies received,
for who can say when the door to grace will slide slowly shut
when the wafer of heaven we rub between our fingers dissolves
when all that we believe to be enduringly ours
is borne away by a wafting breeze
it is such a fragile web,
this tottering cradle from which we revisit the dawn
greet the moon
offer our hearts bared raw and unvarnished,
lean into palisades we fabricate to buffer ourselves from the wind
from each other
ourselves
every moment matters
be it cloaked in darkness
arrayed in brilliance,
this one carries the seed of the next,
germ of the former,
an endless procession of unformed outcomes
spirals and swirls in search of higher ground
and so it is wise to remain awake
merrily gathering whispers of life in braided baskets,
knowing full well that the unraveling never ceases
and the birthing never ends
words divinely wrought 
ram, what a gift to feel your radiant presence and your outpouring love! My morning is already uplifted by imagining you tip-toeing through my site, watching videos, taking in the essence of words, and smiling in agreement. Greetings to you and your beloved family.
