Blue Monday: Tattered Garment

May 29

Immigrants crossing illegally into the U.S. from Mexico often abandon clothing in the Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, Southern California
  


Someone left a garment,
Left in the sand,
As she fled to safety
In a foreign land.
 
The garment’s torn and tattered,
And faded by the sun,
Yet bears the haunting beauty
Of someone on the run.

    Sad in a way to think someone lives like this. May your day be filled with many blessings.

      They are mine too. I try to find beauty even in brokenness.
