Beth,How funny! Yes, I wrote the title to my posting and then accidentally hit "enter," and the thing was suddenly published, despite the fact that I watched it being published and yelled at the screen, "Stop! Wait!! I'm not ready!" It paid me no heed. And then I was helping Gracie get ready for bed, and reading to her, and singing, so the rest of it took a while to get posted. How mysterious it all must have been to you, with just the title lurking like that.And to me, of course, the "you" in the poem is Him. I only recently (in the last year) read the poem this way, and it changes Everything.... And you see: No Worries. I am in good hands. Small ones. Incredibly small. Agile. And scarred.As for your wonderful comments to me about me, well.... Right back at ya!
