There is a silence that stalls --
clear rain water on narrow leafy veins;
dripping settling liquid space,
dreaming an empty craving that is you.
now my spirit is pregnant with sky.
it walks on water, is wide-eyed staring --
smelling touching laughing heaven;
breathlessly claimed into a wind that is You.
The past days, I have been tempted to compromise God for my own worldly desires. The last line of this poem was supposed to read, "breathless running into a wind that is You". But I didn't run into the Wind. I was relentlessly pursued, wooed, won over, reined in, and reminded of who I am.
