Shadows
prove the sunshine.
A tree leans east,
not for light
but memory.
Stones hold the
not for light
but memory.
Stones hold the
warmth after morning.
The dark is only
light at rest.

It's actually the quiet ones who often draw the most attention. There's this constant whirlwind of motion and sound all around, and then there's the quiet one, the eye of the storm.

Pope Leo XIV has made waves by introducing the first-ever “green Mass,” a liturgy dedicated to caring for creation and highlighting the Church’s moral responsibility to protect the environment. This builds directly on Pope Francis’s 2015 encyclical *Laudato Si’*, which declared air pollution and environmental harm as moral issues, especially since the poor suffer most from pollution.
Good morning Claudia, with your beautiful poem.
ReplyDeleteThe photo with the tree is amazing!!
Thank You 🙏🏽
DeletePope Francis was wise about a couple of things.
ReplyDeleteI can't figure out if Pixie is puzzled by those signs and wishing she could inquire at the front desk or if she is raising a paw to agree with Pope Leo's green mass.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy reading your quotes and wisdom as usual
ReplyDeleteWow that title shadow is just light at rest.
ReplyDeleteSome signs are not helpful. 😎
