Lenten Laughter

A cool breeze

Moves through the

Late afternoon like a

Generous thought.

Unhurried

Unannounced

Loosening the hold of the new

Heat, which waits patiently

To take on everything and

Everyone.

Never asking, just arriving and

Demanding summer.

But the wind, sudden and full,

Spills out from the ocean and

Stretches across the sky

Insisting on spring and lots of laughter

The most human of sounds.

Unguarded, contagious, and

Committed to briefly abolishing

All the seriousness of life.

Returning lightness,

Inviting joy

Ebbing and flowing

Shining and shimmering

Loosening the heart

Enlivening the soul

Brightening the spirit.

Revealing the Spirit!
