pale winter moonlight
something longing for water
kneels at edge of lake

2017.12.23: yearning
drawn from reverie
incoherent back and forth
calls of flying geese
2017.10.31: siren
just below surface
a song begun before time
sweet longing for home
2016.02.28: calling
lone flier at dusk
honking over and over
search for belonging
2015.05.20: belonging and longing
“They do not belong to the world any more than I belong to the world.” – Jn 17:16
he does not belong to the world
we do not belong to the world
we belong with him
we belong to him
we belong to you
we belong with you
we long to be with you
our longing rests in you
your longing rests in us
long before we became aware
your longing was with us
our longing is your longing
we will not rest until we bring your longing home
