bad news first
Apr. 6th, 2003 12:12 pmThe bad news is, I missed church again this morning because my ride forgot about the change to Daylight Saving Time. Needless to say, I am quite upset about this, and there was much cursing at unGodly hours this morning as a result. I need church, dammit. Or I will go insane.
The good news is, the female ministerperson sent me a gorgeous poem this morning. A really wonderful, ohmyGod she does understand sort of poem:
Baptism
O my beloved chosen one,
O breath within my lungs,
You are the lips that speak my name,
The passion coursing through my veins
Of dove and flames.
You are the eyes that see my own,
The scar within my soul
That in each new day's dawning art,
Of rainbow arc across my heart
Tears heaven apart.
You are the arms that bid me run
The taste of kisses on my tongue
The voice of fury in the storm
The wild embrace of desert thorn
Of love reborn.
-- Alyson Huntly
This, needless to say, cheered me up enormously. Unfortunately, this was about fifteen minutes before I realized that my ride wasn't going to show, so that was even more of a let-down, but it doesn't really matter. I'm going to take a nap before attempting to actually work.
