eight to six
ideas, meetings, people, reports
smiling, laughing, talking
she waits
friday to saturday
hour to hour
studying, visiting, listening, touching
smiling, laughing, comforting
she waits
sunday
all day
worshipping, learning, nurturing shepherding
smiling, laughing, hugging
she waits
and every night
in the solitude of her room
tossing, turning
praying, thinking,
wondering, weeping
she waits
days pass, life continues
active, caring, sharing, alive
yet deep inside where no one sees
deep inside
she waits
hoping, hurting,
confident, despairing
trusting, praying
quietly, invisibly, interminably
she waits
SLD
always waiting -
to understand
to be understood;
longing,
always longing -
to love
to be beloved;
finding,
unexpectedly finding -
anamCara
the soul's true love;
leaving,
abruptly leaving -
lover's loss
unaware:
waiting,
always waiting -
trusting
he'll be there;
praying,
ceaselessly praying -
for what
no longer sure;
aching,
endless aching;
cause the one he loves
it is not her
waiting
SLD
Leaping, twirling in a ballet of promise
An invisible finger paints a rainbow
A timeless covenant in the dark
Gentle hues, an artist's canvass
Streaks of colour, the bold strokes of God
Willowy shades, music conducted
Sensual touches, whispers of love
The heart melts, emotion rises
Endlessly renewed by a hidden source
Well-spring of life, elixir of hope
From a pool of passion The Essence Himself
SLD
Answered prayer
Bittersweet irony
She chuckles
God smiles
Together they love Him
SLD
Without pain I would not know pleasure
Without dobut I would not know peace
Without sorrow I would not know joy
Without hurt I would not know healing
Without God I would not know Love
Without Love, I would not know....
