a light burning on the stairs
With reference to Shelliz' recent existential cry 'Is anybody there?'-I suppose the Round table must be a gentle place. The sort of place you can leave and come back to without curious looks, and the unspoken question: 'So where have you been?' They say that home is the place 'that when you have to go there, they have to let you in.' But that doesn't mean we visit it very often.
Of course, I love it when my fellow knights gather and banter round this old round board. They are like a fire to me, in the cold New Year winds. But when they push away their chairs, and disappear out, then I believe they out there, blessing someone else. In fact, I know they are, because they are bless-artists, each of them.
I'm keeping a light burning on the stairs, however. Always a light burning at this Round Table. A round table big enough for the world.
