lenten journal: minor gifts
minor gifts
when it comes
to campaigns
major donors
give big bucks
minor givers
give lesser gifts
and are, thus, less
on lots of levels
but minor in
music means
melancholy
a flatted third
makes a home
for sadness
and songs in the
key of grief
one note
changes a chord
one moment
changes a day
even a lifetime
the melody of
sorrow begs for
a harmony line
we have more
to offer than
our abundance
sing along
Peace,
Milton
