Can the story be re-written?

Can the story be re-written?, originally uploaded by picsie.chick.

ready to lift you up
hold you steady
when the brokenness
wants to pull you in

at the hands
and the words
of our sisters
and brothers

joy is revealed

can the story be
re-written

can the brokenness
be inlaid with -
imbued with -
transformed into -
joy

even if the brokenness
is a giant gaping mystery
of not-knowing

let her in
through all the cracks
and broken pieces
to fill that chasm
and bring the peaceful beauty

that is joy
