Foundation

Thank you, Lord, for allowing Peter to fail.

Thank you for the crow of denial
his crow of estrangement
my crow of betrayal.

Thank you for love reclaimed over breakfast on the shore.

For the love of fidelity
his love of friendship
my love of loyalty.

Thank you for transforming failure into foundation.

Coward shepherd no more!
