Poems

God hears

Whenever we pray in secretLips mute and senses stilledGod hears our unspoken yearningLove answers every call

Seen and heard!

In a window next door to our new place,from the home of neighbors we don't yet know,a light always shines through night, andfog and dark in day as well,sending a sense of comfort out asif to show no one is apart, alone.
