A haibun birthday poem

Happy Birthday, Teri Dear!

by Sally Law

She offers from her cup, a drink of living water. Never does she hesitate to bend down, retrieve the cup, and press it to the lips of the thirsty. A humble life she lives--this keeper of the water. "My Jesus is this... my Jesus is that," she boasts.

It's never about her, always Him, and those waiting to read her writing. Today, it is her birthday. How blessed we are, and well-watered.

As she passes
the chalice of life
we are renewed



Recognized


Happy Birthday, dearest Teri. I pray it is well with you, and that your cup is filled to overflowing.
