Gratitude

When all around me I see
havoc and disarray,
ill-considered actions
with devastating consequences…
I’m experiencing gratitude
for safety, protection,
care and caution

The winds blow wild
and the winds blow soft
and who knows which way
the wind will blow…

The gratitude runs deep
and fertilises something inside

and I’ve no idea where I’m heading
or where we will find ourselves
and no need to know

Trust
