I Invite Him In

I feel Him in the still of Night
  and in pools of warm sunlight

I sense His shadow by my side
  as twilight lengthens hurried strides

I invite Him in my modest home
  pour over His Holy Tomes

Hi Gershon. Happy New Year. Your line, "and in pools of warm sunlight" is so soothing and such a nice line to close your eyes to and visualize. Ironically I read this after mass today. It is lovely.
