For berries in winter, we praise your name, oh Creator of all things.
For the miracle that is their rich color, taut skin, juice in each bite.
For berries in winter,
– and every gift that comes
unexpectedly
deliciously
delightfully
out of season –
we praise your name, Oh Creator of all things. Amen.
