in the crack of what is not spoken
it is there where wisdom shall be found
in the warm ginger embrace of silence itself
a timid awareness often comes to call
it is Alike aligning itself with Alike
beneath a fond illumination of peace
where tranquility feels so at home
and stokes the hearth with her fires of
honest compassion
the reality one relies upon is but an intricately
woven, clever cloak
and in the darkest moments while wreathing
in fearful despair
the cloak thins to gossamer
and it is there where we so alone indeed
become more and more soul aware
such times are 'Recipes For Discovery'
God makes it so easy for us to find him
we are the ones who make it so hard
when skeptical or far too ashamed to openly
seek him out
take then a moment or so instead
and simply try embracing the idea of your very
own soul
and his presence there too
will overwhelm you with what is true
for doubt is for the empty
what fear is for the isolated
find your soul and God will seek you out
as he longs for our eternal reunion
all of which he built in our very beings
one brick of faith at a time.....
