In Grace, Walking
by Christine Laws
Green reclines between fire and ice;
I scatter grass in a stream of sun-warmed water.
My friend’s careful fingers linger, caressing greenness.
Light surprises darkened eyes;
He understands the color of life—a slice.
Spring joy blooming, I coax my awakening friend
To join me in this celestial stream called Grace.
He takes that first wet step and, satisfied, stops.
I urge him on, and we walk in warmth—
In Grace to the other side at water’s end.
