day 196


“do not hide your face from me
    in the day of my distress.” Psalm 102:2a

in these days
of uncertainty,
of fears nipping
at our heels, and
worries stalking us,
may we see you
in the faces
of chalk-drawing kids,
mask sewing neighbors,
weary and lined nurse,
and friends caring
for strangers they meet.
