For Foxy 3.0. And for all of us. A poem that arrived just in time.

(at St. Mary's)

may the tide
that is entering even now
the lip of our understanding
carry you out
beyond the face of fear
may you kiss
the wind then turn from it
certain that it will love you back     may you
open your eyes to water
water waving forever
and may you in your innocence
sail through this to that

~ Lucille Clifton, "blessing the boats"
