I think I’m turning Orthodox-- The signs are everywhere-- From icons in the corner To reciting ancient prayers. I even prayed to Mary (My Baptist friends would gasp!) When I sought some intercession For a headache during fast. My husband’s beard has grown in thick, Scents from candles fill our home, I find myself intrigued by Ancient Holy tomes. Acapella singing Seems to soothe my very soul, I started dipping homemade bread Into wine poured in a bowl. My calendar of feast days Is proudly on display, And I’ve pinpointed restaurants That have “vegan specials” days. I think I’m turning Orthodox-- That’s a good thing, isn’t it? My worship finally matches That of ancient Holy writ.
