repost of 8/18/06 poem written when I first came to the bay and wrote as pj


Senses of God

Did you hear me God
when I called out from my heart?
Did you see me fall
when my mind fell apart?
Did you feel me Lord
when I reached out to touch
Your hand of rescue
which I needed so much?

Did you smell my fear God
in the black crevise of sin?
It's so hard to climb out
but so easy to slip in.
Did I miss your voice God
when you spoke to me?
Did you offer me a choice
a choice to be free?

Wake my senses Lord
to what you're offering me,
A way, the truth and a life
The person you created me to be.
