  • Our Meeting Place

    When last we met along the way,
    The two of us, or sometimes more,
    Knit close together by the moment,
    Touching.
    Close together by what's common,
    Bonding.
    Close together by what's different,
    Shaping.

    We came away so subtly changed,
    I can't explain, I'm somehow more,
    A growing more inside my thinking,
    Shaped.
    Growing more inside my feeling,
    Bonded.
    Growing more inside my being,
    Touched.

    Loving God with all my heart.
    And loving you, my neighbor too.
    I specially meet to think of Him,
    Glorify.
    Specially meet to think of you,
    Satisfy.
    Specially meet to think of life,
    and record the minutes
    from our last meeting.

For Peat’s Sake

Dig it!

Dig it!

Something about spring weather set Sherry to thinking about some seeds on our counter. She pulled them off a plant at a restaurant last year.

“Could you pick up some of those peat pots so I can start them?” she asked.

I was already headed out, so I dutifully stopped by the lawn and garden department at a big box next to my destination.

Checkout:

“These are cute. What are they?” the cashier asked.

“You use the them to get seeds started,” I said.

“So you put the seed in that little hole?” she asked.

“Yes,” I said. “And water makes it all expand so there’s room for all the roots to grow.”

“Well, what do you know?” she said.

There you go. On the job training. It’s spring!
