and cleanse me from my sin." Psalm 51:2
like little kids
who play innocent
about the mud
up to their knees
and the muck that
is matting their hair,
we squirm and mutter,
we go as limp as rags
as you gently pull off
all the foolishness we wear
and pick us up and put
us into that great big tub
filled with warm waters of life
and bubbling with grace,
and then you dry us off
and wrap us in the soft
robe of new life and hope,
carrying us to bed as
we fall asleep in your
love
