thirty


“Raise a song, sound the tambourine,
    the sweet lyre with the harp.”  Psalm 81:2

instead of
our usual grumbling,
may we sing love songs
to those around us;
may we clap
our hands in delight
at the wonders of creation;
may we play
the anthems of justice
until they are learned
by the whole world
