Paciencia en la Vida

“Paciencia en la vida”

My mother always says

Patience

Staying calm, steady

When we can’t see clearly

Requires courage and practice

Trusting that underneath the murk

Unseen energy sits

Supporting us

Slowly revealing

Piece by piece

Moment by moment

Sign by sign

That we are loved

Worthy

Deserving of sunlight

Nourishment

And one more chance
