Drawn Blinds

In Loving Memory of Linda and to All Who Loved Her

I close the blind
Shed shoes and clothes
Leave day behind
From whence I rose

I greet the night
I ponder rest
The questions rise …  
Lived I my best?

I fall asleep –
Again draw blinds
Jump to my feet
Do day. Do life.

But then one day
When all is done
When Light will stay
When race is won

When blind’s are drawn
One final time –
We will rejoice!
We’re finally HOME.

    Lovely as always, Heidi. Praise God for that hope of “Home” as we must be separated from loved ones for awhile. One day, all who’ve accepted Jesus into their lives will be reunited in that Home! Such truth offers sweet comfort and glorious anticipation.

    Ahh, dear friend, here we are both processing and publishing through poetic words this morning. With you in drawing the blinds, reflecting on our lives (check out the song at the end of my substack post), and sending so many virtual hugs. Our lives have been forever changed through Linda’s great love.
