When you come to the place of peace,
pause…
don’t rush to get to the next thing
but savor the gift.
With the sleepiness of morning
still in your eyes,
Behold!
Hope gently nudges you awake;
she arrives on the wings of dawn.
Open wide your heart to receive her-
Let her not depart
without knowing
your
hospitality,
welcome her as an old friend.
Embrace her-
for she will not abandon you
in your time of need.
