One
by
one
the layers
peel off...
exposing to
daylight
their spots of decay;
ripping off
tender shoots of seeds
planted in once fertile soil..
...layer after layer..
darkness
and
light
coexisting much too comfortably;
neither strong enough
to take the lead as the layers continue
falling...
until the core reveals newness of life
replanted by the Maker's hand.

Do I smell onions? :)
Peel away, Lord. I trust You...
Yes, this is what came out of that "brewing" about onions...
Joy and hummus
...with a fresh taste of the bread of heaven...
