Appreciate silence as it lingers

long after we’ve traded promises




Giving meaning to empty words

as was our intention




Spinning the continual absence of noise

into ribbons of prayer




Each a stitch in a blanket

that wraps us in protection




Each a note in a song

that soothes our weary soul




It is here where we accept the gift

that being vulnerable brings




Being open to the challenge

Committing to our part




in this exploration of

a life we will create

together
