my holy baby steps

i drop off a few
cans
of beans,
and assorted vegetables
at the church
drop off
box.
sweet corn and peas.
i feel good about myself.
not saintly,
but
it puts a spring in
my holy step.
and then
i see the cookies and
baked
cakes,
the pies
being carried in by others.
flowers
and frozen turkeys.
it makes me sad.
maybe i'm not as good
as i think i am.
