Grace and gratitude

I bring you forth
      Not with the planning of                 preparation or intention
 
But with a desperate gratitude 

 For this magnitude of Love 
That stretches beyond the constraints of
Time, justice, rationality or control. 

I have lived a lifetime of pain and joy
With each following the other 
I thought my joy waning with the inevitability of loss born of regrets and age….

And yet a miracle of light peeks through.
A Grace  to soothe my heart, 
and remake my days worth living.

How precious does my Grace appear
the hour I first believed.
