Maybe it's time

A thought for the Episcopal Church. My home church.

Maybe it’s time
To hold hands with our Methodist
Sisters and brothers,
Mr. Welch included.
Maybe it’s time
To consecrate grape juice,
To offer only
The equally attractive alternative
At church functions.
Maybe it’s time to figure out
How to celebrate life
Without alcohol
For an undetermined period of time
And then
Only then
Our heads may be clear enough
Our hearts may be clear enough
To figure out what’s next.

Maybe it’s time.
