Lent (Two Poems, one short the other expanded)
1.
Looking inwards
Encountering God
Nurturing relationships
Turning outward
2.
Looking inward
Seeing what we need to change
Reflecting on where we have been
And where we are
Sensing the journey ahead
Encountering God
In the scripture
In those we meet with
In the silent times alone
In our hearts
Nurturing relationships
With God
With family and friends
With those we encounter
With the world around us
Turning outward
To those we meet
To those in need of support
To those on the edge of society
To those seeking truth and hope
