Come, Come, Whoever You Are
Wanderer, worshiper, lover of leaving.
It doesn't matter.
Ours is not a caravan of despair.
Come, even if you have broken your vows
a thousand times
Come, yet again, come, come.

Open your hearts, oh woman and man! Now let your great and wise and powerful be as the poor and foolish little ones:
unembarrassed to receive the incredible Gift, and not knotted in guilt over your lack of worth, and not struggling to "earn" what cannot be deserved, but just simply, joyfully accepting of all that is given so humbly and gladly in Love.
