Wandering

I could not help but overhear

the silence, as I listened to the sound

of my own heart beating.

I stood wondering

Who would knock on the door,

And if I could ever let him in.

 

I know now

The secret is in innocence. In children’s’

laughter singing songs out loud.

I know now

not to waste time

wandering through life

looking for life

as it continually escapes

to dream up an existence.

 

I know now

to hold hands with Thee

while playing solitaire.

If only I could remember

Love is but a prayer away.
