Bees Lead the Way

It’s ok to shelter your heart.
Elegant safety, full of grace, full of heaven,
necessary shadows cradle the light,

bells ring softly, sound merging with forgiveness,
blending with the readying to let go,

bees lead the way to sweet sacristies,
wings thrumming with light,
lifting the sun from holy darkness.
