                Come back to God

                A four-part chant for Ash Wednesday

                  Come  back        to  God         with    all        your   heart.

                Ashes


                – powdery-grey
                from keeping on trying
                to get a spark from two stones

                – streaky black
                from relighting a candle
                that keeps going out
