Wonder

You did see me unraveled,
at odds with the oment,
myself, and all the arrangements
of my overzealous life.
It’s a wonder that you,
with your small charm,
that quiet dignity and
overabundant humility,
saw past my breakdowns.
But you did and you easily
took me up in your arms,
brought me to the pace
of your unworried steps.
