patterns of ink

How fruitless to be ever thinking yet never embrace a thought... to have the power to believe and believe it's all for naught. I, too, have reckoned time and truth (content to wonder if not think) in metaphors and meaning and endless patterns of ink. Perhaps a few may find their way to the world where others live, sharing not just thoughts I've gathered but those I wish to give. Tom Kapanka

By Grace, I'm a follower of Christ. By day, I'm a recently retired school administrator; by night (and always), I'm a husband and father (and now a grandfather); and by week's end, I sometimes find myself writing or reading in this space. Feel free to join in the dialogue.

When Weeping Falls












Sometimes…

It takes the hottest tears

to melt the coldest pain.

The salt that drips to trembling lips

is savored not in vain.

It sometimes takes the taste of sorrow

and eyes blurred blind with grief

to remind us that tomorrow

stows hope of sweet relief.

Perhaps it's when our weeping falls

like rain upon our face

that aching, outstretched arms

are fit to feel His warm embrace.
