Constellations of Light – v3

Each a separate star

in the sky, a thread, a filament,

in the tapestry, in the fabric,

the gifts I feel called to share

a constellation of light, me

At the center my sense of the Creator

my relationship with God

but all the rest

part of who I am

who I am meant to be

Not one single path

messier than this image

grays, colors, blending

bleeding into one another

a more complicated hue

all needed for the picture

the whole of the tableaus

that there wouldn’t be a missing piece

together alone the whole of me

as God intended from the start
