Familiar

There may be a lot that is in store,
Yet I've been through so much,
That this warmth that I have felt before,
Could be nothing but your touch.

It awakens like a summer rain,
And dribbles down my soul,
It helps to keep these thoughts sane,
And tethered to my goal.

And I always feel your presence,
A day or two before you show,
A calm before the essence,
Of what next I need to know.

And it's then I know this student,
Is as ready as can be,
For my ever loving master,
Has again come back to me...
