LIKE ROOTS
Our hands imbibe like roots,
so I place them on what is beautiful in this world.
And I fold them in prayer, and they
draw from the heavens
light.
St. Francis of Assisi

I love this plant. It has been in the neighborhood, I think, less than five years - time is not easy to keep track of during the pandemic. When the weather is warm and the sun is bright, bees visit. Such a joy to see. Yes, heaven's light.
