AS MERCY STIRS HER TEA

all things are permitted
'As Mercy Stirs Her Tea'
life with her carefully set table
invites guests to warm
a variety of seats
so many
bemoaning their work
as they enjoy her laden
bountiful feast
pretending not to see
other empty dusty tables
in the distance
near the fringe
it's easy to forget
the blessings
when one's ego
steps in so to speak
a thankful heart
no matter what the
circumstance
is a glorious blessing
all its own
for true adversity is
a rusted knife
who's blade
into the human fabric
is deliberately sewn....................
