second sunday in Lent

As I said when I began,
I don't post a poem on Sundays during lent
because Sunday is always a celebration of the resurrection.

I'm primarily doing this project
as a discipline for my Lenten experience.
I am glad you read it
because that means
you are holding me accountable for it.
If I said I was going to give up
Peanut Buster Parfaits for Lent,
I could go out and get one
and I might be able to do it without anybody "catching" me.

I hope some of these poems speak to you
-- I'm sure they are not all THAT GOOD.
We have had almost 250 "hits"
since I first announced it.
That keeps me going.

I pray that you have also found
a "meaningful" discipline
during this season of Lent
and that it is blessing you
and helping you to be ready for Easter.
