Maundy Thursday

Apr 6, 2023

You could cry with her when her dog gets sick.

You could remember how he likes his cookies—soft or crispy.

You could deliver Thai food and order extra sticky rice,

because sometimes we just need extra sticky rice.

You could drop off flowers.

You could tell the waitress, “It’s their birthday!”

There are a million ways to show someone your love.

Footwashing was his.
