bread and fishes

try it
it's easy
you take
one breath after another
one step after another
one word after another
one day at a time

after awhile
everything accumulates
growing like wildflowers
in the hill country of Central Texas:
every action
every decision
every prayer

if hope was money
you could spend every dollar bill
and still receive 
more than you give

hope can multiply
it's bread and fishes
it's communion
it's Mecca
it's Jerusalem

it's my heart
I am giving it a chance
