day 288

 “But he said to them, ‘You give them something to eat.’” Luke 9:13

 

our pantries overflow

with hoarded hope,

our closets are crammed

with garments of grace,

our garages are full

of boxes filled with love

to get us through winter,

but

we offer empty hands

and emptier hearts

to all who come asking

for just a smidgen

of what you share with us
