A poem from 2004: ‘Seek‘

I wrote this poem in 2004, forced to live in isolation, trapped in agony in a paralysed body. The only way to cope and maintain hope was to enter within and seek awareness of God with me, to try to hear His still small voice whispering words of love and encouragement.

Seek

Silence

first

seems

empty

then

the sweet

voice of God

whispering

completeness,

beauty

and stillness,

can be heard

Desperation,

Desolation,

Isolation,

Emptiness,

leads us

on a

profound

journey,

always

to seek.

There must be 

more

than  

just

never-ending

torment

for

a soul

to survive.

It is only in

the pure

still

silence

that you find

the ever-flowing

awesome

wonder of

the Living God

with you,

always and ever-loving.
