Tuesday
by Marti McCraw

Tuesday
Yours to draw
Pulling from my dreams
Drawing from my sorrow
Blending from my yesterdays
Creation Day
Tuesday
Blessed by breathing in and out
Blessed by eyes wide open
Heart pumping
Neurons snapping
To walk, to breathe,
To sing God's glory like the rising sun.
Hold me fast in your creation day
Merciful and mighty
March through my stubborn ways
with faith trumpets
and shouts of triumph
Crumbling walls forged with inferior material.
Stones rolled away
Reveal resurrection brilliance
in faithful obedient acts
Woven patiently
Through summer storms

and frosty frozen darkness
Never-ending, patient grace
Knowing today will shine
Tuesday
Yours.
