A Psalm of Prayer In Flight

A Psalm of Prayer… A flight above yet near… As you sit there, across from My perhaps sleeping, I wonder… Do you ever wonder during these long hours, Where I really am? Do you see how I have travelled With my soul…So very far? Far! Does the glinting line of my tears Across my pillow give any hint? Do your thoughts send out Search parties To trample and poke The piled, crumbling leaves Of all my journals? Or, then, might it occur to try for yourself, Our Holy Lord’s storied route for Flight To Divine Joy? While so near, so constant with Your watching, your worrying over me, Will you eventually glean: Within Peace …I am not here. I journey in music, Lifted along above A trail of manna, of breadcrumbs Scattered by the Holy Spirit… Meant for all souls To follow. Follow!

As I respect your work, I am deeply touched by your comment. This Psalm of Flight I feel so completely. P.s. my husband doesn’t get how tears come when my soul touches God. My poetry lies deep within. Nice getting to know you!

Oh Judy, yes! And I know how much you do relate. For me, it’s almost journalism, non fiction. Ha! Have a great day!
