Shattered Mirrors

i will turn to meet my destiny,
reflected in shattered mirrors.
heart broken open,
i will pick up the pieces
no matter how sharp
to reflect
what is neglected
in dark corners,
wounded, light deprived,
with prayerful hands i'll
recycle devastation to
nourish new life.
art, like gardening,
is an act of faith and healing,
shining for the world.
as Mystery's greater
than the sum of all suffering,
i will trust to Love.
