“How lonely sits
the city
that once was full of people!”
Lamentations 1:1
playgrounds
with yellow
caution tape
swaddling the
swings and slides,
hallways
echoing the absent
voices
of students
sequestered at home,
faith communities
with silent pews
and chairs
and musical
instruments
muted and
deadened,
while
you walk the empty
streets
leaving
breadcrumbs
of hope and grace
for us to follow
