Every blade of the creeping bentgrass my bare feet have touched
has been an ever-going love,
for all the soft landings I've had in life
have only come from God.
When I've tried to leave, deciding it was time
and that I could bear no more,
I was given another reason to move forward
and reminded what I was here for.
The setting sun in its soft hazy suspension
the moon blazing with that smile so assured
the sunshine across my curved shoulders
were all warm hugs, and I was reassured.
Kindhearted people would come to my side
and share words that touched an ailing soul,
I knew they were love letters from my Father
and they were acting as stewards for not letting go.
How can anyone contest the facts
when I've known this steady care since I was small and vulnerable?
When hardship will try to make you forget the truth,
nothing can take away what is embedded in your foundation and has made you whole.
It is in the very fibers of the being of this girl.
