Christ Is a Refuge
Christ is a refuge
He takes all the unwanted
He is home to countless
Without home
To the comfortable as well

In conversation, I prefer Christopher. My mom named me after Christopher Robin, after all. In writing, I use “C L Couch” (or, more simply, “c l couch”) because the form is genderless and also frankly easier to use. I have awful writer’s cramp. I am an educator more or less retired, more or less due to disability. At present, I live in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania (USA). My writing here I mean to be occasional and also devotional. Either or both. The banner and profile photographs are by my friend and peer Debra Danielson. More of Debbie’s work to be enjoyed is at debradanielson.org. Thanks to each of you and both and all for coming to my blog.

This is touching.. so touching! Indeed he is homeless here, but now he gives home to homeless souls. ❤

Thanks for reading both poems with your devout insight. Christ understands the plight of those who feel homeless in spirit as well as place. Christ becomes a refuge for those in need–the kind of need that ultimately we all have.
