Artist Statement:
Her Boy: Her Boy Her boy demanded his estate, 
And left to seek an unknown fate. 
Her boy was gone for days and days, 
Then months and years—his path astray. 
Her prayers went up each tearful night, 
But God seemed quiet, out of sight.
As time went on, a peace descended, 
knowing God would guide her beloved.
Then one eve, she saw her boy, 
A distant shape- heart leaping for joy.
Her husband ran, his arms out wide, 
As dust and mercy intertwined. 
Her boy, hollow-eyed, his spirit torn, 
Came home at last, weary and worn. 
He fell at her feet, “I am undone, 
Not worthy to be called your son.” 
She cradled him as long before,
“My boy, my boy—forevermore.
Your grief has ripened into grace,
You’re home at last, in love’s embrace.”
