(Wendy Cabell, May 13, 2025 – feast day of Blessed Julian of Norwich (note her universal appeal), Our Lady of Fatima, Our [nursing] Lady Dawn of Peace, Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament… and in true synchronicity, Jewish calendar commemorates Matzah Depleted during the Exodus (1313 BC) --- which would be replaced with daily Manna.)
Kaddish Candle
(for Pope Francis)
As heart beats, even in sleep.
Sun wakes without an alarm.
Sinews stretch, shake.
Rain splashes regardless.
Milk thistle, dandelion keep growing —
a nesting bluebird’s breakfast.
Mourning birdsong.
