Silence

This National Poetry Month I will be posting a sequence of poems, written last year and this year, for others in a series called Giving Poetry. In this series, people request a poem using a title, specific words, concepts, or ideas. After writing the poem, I send it to them, posting it on Facebook and on my blog. This is Giving Poetry.

Poem on vibrant and personal worship

Silence: The Words of Worship: for Jim

When my words fail,
I sit in silence
as you sing over me.

“The LORD your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in his love he will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing." –Zephaniah 3:17, NIV

Wind II

Wind II

Silently
Drifting
In the moonlight
The wind shifting
Whispering
The silence
You are fading
Into the stillness
Your breeze
Carried me

Wind

Wind

Thought I felt you
And you slipped away
Your breeze carried me
Into the new day
You whispered
Silently
And faded—Stay
Again you blow
The stillness you know
Howling at night
Drifting
In the moonlight
And gone again
