Silence In silence we met, And words melted in Love’s sweet communion. Time passed unwatched, And I reached out - Naked as Adam - And let you clothe me Afresh. In silence we met, And words melted In Love’s sweet communion. And I was truly known, By the Beloved of God; In the Silence of a Church, And known for all eternity, While time passed Unheeded.

The One Pound Coin

Struggling with shopping bags, and my walking stick, I smiled at the young man, as he crouched there by Clintons, with cap on the floor, Begging. Our eyes met, till he looked away. But the guilt was mine as I, mumbling excuses walked on. With the difference between us Not our postures, but the pound I did not give.

Easter Dawns

Easter dawns again. The ugly truth about a Man and a God, Our God, The one true God, Ripped apart Not by a dog, Or a pack of dogs, But by those made in his own image. We try to look. Try to understand, Through the mist of time. Was there a real risk of failure? Could it have all gone horribly wrong? We cannot grasp how high the stakes were. Only let Easter dawn in our hearts again And respond to love that knows no end.

Christmas 2008 Church Bells ringing Midnight service. Carols sung Communion given. Glitzy glamour Twinkling lights; Presents, food And Christmas tree. Children laughing, Adults groaning. See the Queen And fall asleep. Snowman melting, Presents broken; Grumpy Adults Crying Children. Christmas over Soon Be Easter. Pack away the Glitzy glamour. And the Babe Of Bethlehem?
