Haiku Series, By Faith
Haiku series, by Faith
(Written for Addi Menefee, Gail Menefee)
under my blankets
knowing of children with cancer
prayer songs rise
my soul swims through grace
see their bodies struggle by faith
dance to healing
I picture their faces
smoothed crowns in clinics
Christ calls the eagles, “Fly!”
precious their growing
blessed freed secured
hear playgrounds filled with laughter
blessed parents with strength
Holy Spirit present
starlight shines eternal
with blankets pulled back
in stilled silence asleepp
soul sends glory praise
