Awaiting the Knock At the Door
Awaiting the Knock at the Door
David J Walker
We are gathered,
But not together,
in thought
And prayer
In anticipation of a knock a
At the door
That only One may hear
Are you there, we constantly ask
Slumped and head bowed
His eyes slightly open
And in a nod and a gasp the answer, yes
But only for now, He whispers
As he thumbs through
93 chapters of life
We are gathered together
Awaiting the phone to ring
