SandScript 2020

But for me, faith was a journey
And it doesn’t look like the faith of others
It’s embodied by nature—
It’s not prayers and psalms at all
But a daily honoring of the things that keep me going
The spirits of the elements that coalesce within
Earth gives me strength and grounding
Supportive and nurturing, where all things come from
A shelter, a home to return to each day
POETRY
Air gives me wisdom and cleverness
A stiff breeze pushing me along to learn more and more
The wind in my sails
Fire gives me passion and ambition
Burning the ground beneath me so I cannot stagnate
The candle flame in my soul
Water gives me life and love
Washing over me soothingly and blending with tears
The fountain of emotion in my heart.
The universe takes my hand and leads me on this journey.
