Second Monday in Lent

"I lift up my eyes to the
   hills--
from where will my help
   come?" Psalm 121:1

you shaped the stars,
yet thought to put a
twinkle in our
eyes;
you carved rivers
through canyons,
and gave us 
tears to share with
laughter;
you shattered moons
into asteroids,
and put hearts
deep within
us which break
for others;
you ignited that
spark which flung
universes into space, 

yet effortlessly
take a moment to
help us.
