She begins her day in prayer,
a settled, deep breath
of her soul before stepping
out of bed, before moving
into the what-may-come
ticking minutes ahead.
She steadies herself
with faith, a long draw
from a deepening well,
and she is content to wait
in that still-dark moment
before the dawn knowing
she is so graciously
and tenderly loved.
