Where I once sat
Now sits an empty chair
with emptiness...all around.
There is the sound...
of silence.
A common view through...
a window to my world.
Where once I passed the time
With a plethorea of prose and rhymes...
now holds no embracing words...Those meant to explain my lost way...
to explore thoughts unheard.
Those outside my window to the world.
here once I sat in redeeming respiteOffering my words for a Time of Quiet...
Words that find the heart not head
sent forth from experience...
even if limited to my window to the world...
Awaiting a final viewing...
One that could never be alone
When there are memories of you...
Both before and after..
an empty chair.
Lord,
Lead us from aloneness
to extending our present world
to share with others...
both from bounty and experiences.
Guide us to that point of final veiw
such that the chair may empty be...
but the thoughts of our caring...
Will encourge others to see...
a light
to a new world.
Amen
