The Lord said

My Heart rests in your heart ... When on Holy Thursday I left Myself in the Blessed Sacrament, you were very much on My mind ...

Just as they were telling about it

Jesus himself was suddenly standing there

among them and said
                      
                                        " Peace be with you "

Coelius Sedulius & Giovanni Vianini

Beowulf

...

May one so valiant

and venturesome

come unharmed

through

the clash of battle ... 


Lines 299 - 300

                                       
                
                                                                 up to you 

Heather Allen : "Grasses"

So still at heart, 

They respond like water 

To the slightest breeze,

Rippling as one body,



And, as one mind,

Bend continually

To listen:

The perfect confidants,



They keep to themselves

A web of trails and nests,

Burrows and hidden entrances --

Do not reveal



Those camouflaged in stillness 

From the circling hawks,

Or crouched and breathless

At the passing of the fox.
