amen

prayer falls from my heart

into your lap

and you gather up the words spilt,

lifting each one to your lips

as if it was a thin, precious wafer

not a crumb falls to the floor

and no dogs bark, begging

there is only the hum between us,

two hearts–

singing


THIS POEM APPEARS IN MY BOOK “Outside the Fairy Tale”
Available on Amazon

This Celtic cross on the isle of Iona is a powerful reminder of those who have gone before us and will come after us. May they find us faithful to the voice, call and love of God in our lives. A deep good often fostered by soulful conversation. By times of sharing & simply caring.
