Psalm for the Year’s End by Carla Grosch-Miller,
“Here I am.
What is done is done.
What is undone
nourishes seeds still hidden.
Nothing is lost.
Here I am.
A little more hollowed out by grief,
a little wiser for the wear and tear,
my eyes are open now.
There is a dawning knowing in me
of beauty and of terror.
My soul stretches to hold it.
Here I am.
Joy has made a home in me.
Its radiance warms
and extends.
The light shines brighter.
Ancient songs glow
with a wisdom
for which I hunger.”
