Untitled – as Yet
I can’t decide what to call this one
Whisper
Take me away
From the day
Full of nothingness
To a place of fullness
Remind me
That I am so much more
Than the sum of my days
Worth more than the turning of the earth
Journeying round the Sun
Whisper
In the gentle breeze
Bid me welcome
In the chuckle of the contented stream
Gurgling merrily
In its journey
To meet the ocean
Call to me
In the cry of the gulls
The chittering of the sparrows
The neighing of the horses
And the call of the sheep to their lambs
Seduce my weary heart
Away from the shallow city
Bid me come away
To you and rest
Welcome me
To the familiar cave
Of the heart
So oft neglected,
Ignored
The wounds are harder to face
Than the pretty baubles
The streetlight sirens
Calling my name
But will I ever be content
In that crazy life?
Or will I lose myself
Wayward
Like the prodigal son?
How long will it be
Before I come to my senses?
And listen to the yearning
To hear your soft, gentle whisper
“I love you”
“Spend time with me
rest and be content
Come home, my child,
Come home”
