The Sealing

The Sealing

What is that soft wind swirling ‘round the air?
Catching my breath in its Word without words.
Nothing could other than your Spirit be,
Surprising, Love of loves enveloped me.

In wonder I walked, in wonder I lived,
Feeling the glow of peace above the earth;
That soft wind staying very gently felt,
Unseen, unbelieved and yet believing.

Those weeks Love held me in its tender vice,
Slowly, slowly bringing my feet to ground,
Love not leaving, but so reassuring,
Impossible to forget, turning life.

When mean dark nights now try to break my heart,
Sealed by your Spirit forever I know.

The words are very passionately chosen and indicate the mazy mind of a lover poet.
