have a bit of cake
washed down by starlit waters
an elderberry flower
do not your prayer forsake
it may do you good
lost children in the wood
who stray too far
take a glow worm in a jar
be guided by small things after graduation
the moss on trees
the leaves when they turn gold
weathervaning in the evenings
and when it's cold, take your sweater
tell yourself the warmest stories.
God will know what to do.
if you listen, He'll tell you.
