Are You Still There

I hear the dishes clink and clank, And footsteps on the floor. Are you still there? I ask myself, I don't know anymore. I reach the stairs and sit a while, Outside my bedroom door. "Are you still there?" I ask out loud, I wish that I knew more. I'm almost down the staircase now, I'm sitting on step four. I see you through the railing gaps, Inside the kitchen door. You are still there! I see you now, Of this I can be sure. I'll stay a while and watch you as you Finish up your chore. "It's time for bed, you sleepy head. Feel safe and feel secure. I'll always be right here for you, Right now and evermore."

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
