Sarah’s Apron

And so she came
apron full with
all the treasures she had gathered.
She had sought Him and found Him.
She had labored and been rewarded.
She had planted and watered.
She had sat at His feet and
learned about the seasons and
how to be fruitful in each.

And fruitful she had been.

And so she came
apron full
happy to share from her labour of love
Though only the two of them knew
the tears they had shed for
this harvest.
