Maundy Thursday
When my spirit languishes within me,
you know my path.
Psalm 142:3
a shared meal
with friends
close at hand
laughing and longing
sacred
offering to serve
to touch
to wipe clean the dust of the day
a tear-stained face
costly
a night of prayer
yearning for a different path
yet staying the course
choosing love
the hour is at hand
