Thank You, Father (Author: Joe DiMino)

 

Thank you, Father,
for a thread of warmth
when life left me numb,
senseless,
abandoned but for Your filament of light
through the dark cloak
I had woven....

How often may I thank You?
I pray it is infinite
as stars
flickering to the light
in the fabric
of my many
midnight places....
