Color Ties
by Kaly (Kaly's bio)

Over coffee and sweet breads
maybe a cinnamon roll
all warm with butter and you
both were there

And I loved you.

you had something I could
see that....something I only
talked of in my mind
but was unable to unwind.

And, I trusted you, too.

I was nudged to enter,
to ask for Your presence
to know You a different way
and You led us to a park to play

And I knew You were there.

The river creek ambled politely
awaiting the warmth of Your breath
Your wind delicately caressing
its gentle rocked waves blessing

And they prayed.

I tried to unravel the You inside me
tried to let go of me to You;
then, your color ties swept inside
like a breeze of blazing suns in stride

And, we prayed together.

Yellows, reds, oranges...every
hue of the Spirit's radiance
came down to settle;
still, I could not utter

And, we stayed there awhile with You.

Daily, I pondered Your lights
and read how You blew sweetness
and rested Your gifts upon
those who sought Your wisdom

And, I stayed on the Word, and spoke:

Such joy, such gentle joy as I
could hardly describe alone in my shelter
with You to guide, You to give me the Words
I could not give You, O my Lord.....

And, the Spirit intercedes...

Your fire dwells in me
