There I am— waiting to be born. And there I am again: lost, forgotten, forlorn. There I am.
Here I am— not one, but many, a circle of strangers staring at each other. Here I am.
What to do? Where to go? What to say? Who to be?
Colors of a rainbow caught up in whirlwind that I am, swirling with sudden fury, they remain blind to work of grace and beauty their lives will one day form.
All the while the Gracious Other stretches out a hand, bids them come children, come as you are, for there is a promised land. I know there is a promised land ahead.
Kaleidoscope colors seen now through the looking glass, through tears that wash away pain like mist of fresh waterfall rain. We will be one. We will be one at last. We are one at last.
