Independence Day

Wedding rehearsal last night.  Wow.  One of the best rehearsals I have ever participated in.  Wonderful assistance by May Anstee and Rinda Allison (DOK), and a bride and groom who thought through so many particulars.  Stunning.  

There can be no independence
Without interdependence.
I see this
No matter that we missed
The fireworks
Last night.
There can be no independence
Without interdependence.
I see this
As I remember yesterday’s
Wedding rehearsal
And think about
The wedding tomorrow,
The sermon I will preach
From the middle of things
Without notes
Because it takes all of us
All the time
Looking each other
Eye to eye,
Hearing each other
Ear to ear
Holding each other
In love,
Holding each other
Accountable,
Holding each other
Just to hold each other
Beloved.
