The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Holy Spirit

Elusive being sought by far and wide
Seen by many unresponsive to our call
As veiled, elusive vacillating bride
Apparently intending to forestall

Don’t look for Holy Spirit up above
Nor in the dark of night in call of prayer
That being portrayed as a Snow White dove
 Comes not with feather born on breath of air

Could it be our signal error in this quest
Is our focus on external source of blessing
Wishing ever hopeful answers to request
For unwanted situation - a redressing

While The Holy Spirit hidden by our sin
So close to be unseen is deep within
