Thanks, God
Thanks, God, for being.
Thanks, Creator-God,
for a dying season,
wet, decaying plant matter,
fog and frost,
dark mornings and early nights.
Thanks, Mother-God,
for maturing daughters,
who share their laughter,
their tears, their thoughts,
their loves, their hurts.
Thanks, Espoused-God,
for an aging husband,
who teases about
my wrinkles and sagging skin
and stays anyway.
Thanks, Jesus-God,
for being human,
for allowing me to be human,
fragile, frightened, failing.
Thanks, Spirit-God,
for breath,
to speak, to be silent, to sigh,
to sing, to sorrow, to savor a fragrance.
Thanks, God, for being
The God.
