O.K. here goes. Trying out this whole blog world and putting a few words out there.
This week's High Calling Blogs- RAP

Desired
last week.
Sought out.
Bought new.
Now, I'm left
laid aside.
Looked for
to see through.
Put down
to see far.
Here, there,
by, on, near.
I focus
the small.
I magnify
the close.
Now, I'm left
laid aside
on a stack
of books.

  1. Nice! So pleased to see you tried the "mask."

    Just stopping in to say that instructions for RAP are here:

    The best thing is to stop by my personal blog and leave a comment once you've got your post up; also, we appreciate links back to HCB and the other participants, since it's a community thing.

    Welcome to the blogosphere! :)

  2. Emily,
    I just wanted to let you know how much your story of your tender love for your son, caring for him through his anxiety at the birthday party, deeply touched me...
    Thank you... I want to remember this grace always...

    Grateful for the grace of you,
    Ann

  3. Those first two lines are heart-breaking. "Desired... last week." Wonderful, horrible, honest surprise in line two.
