Blessing for our feet
To the tired, scarred, and dirty
To the agile, fragile, and smelly
To the hardened, injured, and swollen
May the oils of
rose,
lavender,
frankincense,
jasmine
trickle
down your ankles,
tickle
your toes,
soften
your soles.
May you shamelessly anoint others
with lavish gifts ensconced
in alabaster jars,
To remember the Christ
who poured out the most precious gift
– His life –
for us all.
