The Barefoot Peace of Ash Wednesday

 peace, barefoot

walking slowly toward me

floating grey and silver

the Holy flashing through


peace, a gathering of flickering angels

he then she then he again

pausing to dance the dual world

braiding the misty initiation


peace, even as a child

I loved the ashes

a signature of truth

sealed on my forehead


Ash Wednesday
