What is the nature of true surrender?
MAKING A NEW DAY
Inspired by his tenderness
I order myself to keep loving.
I fold my maps and roll up
my secret battle plans.
I tuck my hands into
the
pockets of a quiet dawn.
I breath the new day’s air
as distant birdsong wakes the world
Surrender is a door
That opens inward
I lay down my armor
And learn the shape of gentleness
