TRANSPARENT 

To be transparent,
now that’s difficult –
especially to ourselves.
 
To be translucent
as the blue water on a
Caribbean beach. Rare!
 
We all have some
sharks, sting rays,
swimming underneath.

And sometimes the water
is gray and we have no idea
of the wrecks and treasures below.

So we better accept
each other as is and
slowly get the surprises.
 

And who said they have
to be bad secrets. Jesus
discovers people at the water.
