A cup of tea
A check of the timepiece
Study the roof fan
Study the blinds
Wait
For the light to unfold
Wait
For nature to craft the day
Sit with your silence
Sit with your joy
Bathe in your solitude
Celebrate your love
As you sit
One other departs
Yes, as you sit
Someone else says goodbye
With that
Comes the blue sky
With your leaving
Her life is left behind
In this quiet place
In this Quaker hall
Solid, reliable
Safe, strong
