"A Prayer for Spring"

A Poem by Janice Heil


“Like Springtime, let me unfold and grow fresh and anew from this cocoon of grief that has been spun around me. Help me face the harsh reality of sunshine and renewed life as my bones still creak from the winter of my grief.


Life has dared to go on around me and, as I recover from the insult of life’s continuance, I adjust my focus to include healing and growth as possibility in my future.


Give me strength to break out of the cocoon of my grief, but may I never forget it is the place where I grew my wings, becoming a new person because of my loss.”
