Love is at your back

Breathe and trust with the wind at your back

Here is our heart month’s blessing for you.

Breathe and trust with the wind at your back

Lucille Clifton 

blessing the boats
(at St. Mary’s)

may the tide
that is entering even now
the lip of our understanding
carry you out
beyond the face of fear
may you kiss the wind then turn from it
certain that it will love your back   may you
open your eyes to water water waving forever
and may you in your innocence
sail through this to that
