Thur., Apr. 9

Set the table
pour the wine
open the doors
sing beyond them
a greeting song
a welcoming tale
inviting in all;
some are able
others may not,
but do not judge
their walking past
their fearful looks
their regrets pushing
their paths away.
Why don't all enter?
So many reasons
enough for each
waiting to hear
words of welcome
that light upon
their flinching heart
which may require
three, five, seven times
delivered with love
to accept as theirs.
Set the table
pour the wine
open the doors
truly welcome in
those you've called
and learn what that offer
really means
when it's really made.
