All Lined Up
They’re all lined up
and dressed to the T’s.
Shoulder to shoulder
and hip to hip
they hang on vinyl pews
silent and still
until one billowed breath
sends them swaying in the spirit
and waving praises
in hallelujah colors.
Word Count: 40 (minus the title)
(Pulled from the archives and edited up to 40 words.)
NOTE: I’m also guest-posting over at Laura Rath’s today with more than 40 words titled “On the Path to Perfect” for her Comparison Series. I hope you’ll join me over there as well. And if I’d thought ahead, I could have done a 40-word tease in this space today. Oh well. #preapproved.

And the winner of Love Idol by Jennifer Dukes Lee (thanks to the grandgirl’s blindfolded drawing) is… Jennifer. Congratulations, friend! I will be emailing you for your snail mail address.
In the stillness,
Sandy
