Hush Song
"Be still and know that I am God." (Psalms 46:10)
Be stil shhhsh
what ifs
if onlys
whys
whens
be
quiet this is the moment of
surrender
hands lifted
fingers unfurled
like petals
in offering
this is before
yes and amen
the quiet fissure
in time/space
between
heaven/hell
that I hide in
breathless moments
make poems worth reading
this is the
space
between the lines
the gaps
that make words of letters
quiet.
be here
to hear
or...
Be
quiet:
this is the breath
before the yes
between annuciation
and conception
of Christ
in you.
Abba singing
His hushsong
saying:
nothing
nothing
sweet nothing.
