For the Tenders: Blessing for Chaplains and Health Care Workers During the Coronavirus

blessed is the raft maker

and blessed is the repairer of the breach
and blessed is the warm soul who treats your dark
with the embrace of a thousand summers’ suns
who when your winter eyes tire of false comforts 
and artificial light
reminds you of your unfolding 
as restless and earnest as the waves.
