Sunday, July 3
Put not your trust in rulers, nor in any child of earth, *
for there is no help in them.
When they breathe their last, they return to earth, *
and in that day their thoughts perish. Psalm 146:2-3 (BCP)
Bleached by the sun
Frayed in the wash
The quilt fades
birds pick up the threads to build a nest.
