Happy Spring! We at Divine are getting excited for warmer weather and hopefully, more safe visits from our families and friends. We have risen above so many trials and tribulations here at Divine Rehab and Nursing at Lodi and could not be more grateful! We are still Covid-free and hope to continue to rise above it as the year progresses. In honor of our hard-working staff, who have risen above all odds, we offer a poem:
APRIL RISE
“If ever I saw a blessing in the air, I see it now in this still early day. Where lemon-green the vaporous morning drips, wet sunlight on the powder of my eye. Blown bubble-film of blue, the sky wraps round, weeds of warm light whose every root and rod, splutters with soapy green, and all the world sweats with the bead of summer in its bud.
If ever I heard a blessing it is there where birds in trees that shoals and shadows are, splash with their hidden wings and drops of sound, break on my ears their crests of throbbing air. Pure in the haze the emerald sun dilates, the lips of sparrows milk the mossy stones, while white as water by the lake, a girl swims her green hand among the gathered swans.
Now as the almond burns its smoking wick, dropping small flames to light the candled grass, now as my low blood scales its second chance. If ever world were blessed, now it is.” -Laurie Lee
Bless our Divine House and the community we serve!
