Inaudible Graces

CarolAndrewsJensenTheBleedingHeart_500.jpg

Little breaths, every day.

Invisible memorials to

each of your ancestors.

Impermanent memorials to

each branch of your family tree,

Impossible memorials to

each and every face

that gave you yours.

Inaudible graces to

each and every little breath

from every face

you never knew.
