http://anonymouslegacy.blogspot.com.au/2013/03/visdare-12-waiting.html The word is WAITING.
Do I wait for a ‘God’ to answer me
is that why I am here
I don’t believe…agnostic though not complete
for I hold my hands in prayer
when life is troubled
can’t find my way
I find myself hands clasped
but religion and I aren’t
intertwined…no committed belief
I come here for solace
for the sanctuary within
towered columns and lead light
the safety recognised silence
The seats uniformed
no pews to sit I ‘grab a chair’
and cross my legs
contemplate life, reflect on what ‘if’s’
For there is comfort from the
world outside, I hear
the organ keys hear the choir
of voices … what I need today
Whatever my belief even for this
second I am waiting
I sit introspective
for answers that I seek
For today’s thoughts could be
tomorrow’s memories
and comfort I may not need
let me be here… close the door
it is me… I purely seek
For Visdare

Beautiful, I do not believe in organized religion, however I do find a lovely sense of peace and tranquitlity when I have been in the old churhes of europe or in Jewish temples or any place where people have come together in communion—strange isn’t it?
not strange at all, even the non religious must have feelings like this evoked ..even for their history and what it stands for to others. Thank you ‘I’ xx
Your words are beautiful
Thank you Bo – thank you. x
Beautifully written. You really captured the reflective moment, the quiet suspense of waiting and hoping, even when those hoped-for, waited-for things don’t have a name. Well done!!
Thanks Angela and thanks for the Tweet reminder…sometimes I have a propensity to forget as there are many challenges and many words to be written! 🙂 x
