Next to Godliness

After sweaty, dirty, sticky days, I have to agree.


Manure, straw dust, cat hair, dirt, chicken feed, sun burn, raw meat, blood, bites, scratches, scrapes-
all come here for comfort and release.
Hot epsom salts for achy muscles
Cool showers for grumpy stench
Antiseptic soaks for bloody skin


This is the place where the pain of labor 
and the discomforts of life are eased.
This is a most redemptive place.
