Encounter With Presence
04/10/2013
George Poulo


You saw in me divinity
I saw you seeing me
It was all it took to be made one
 
It took time to engage in conversation
Not knowing the unknown
But fear gave way to desire
And now we talk
And now we look
And it makes me happy
 
You may be deep in thought
Far from the present moment
But when our eyes meet
The light of life is born
And I see the joy of the encounter with presence
 
It takes a spiritual person
To recognize the Spirit
But when you encounter presence
Fully human, fully awake, fully alive
Friendship is born
Pure and innocent and free
And God is in our midst
 
Words that express thought are of little importance
The look, the encounter, the smile is a picture of life, abundant and free
I thank God for awareness
Living in the here and now
Wanting nothing more than to look and see
Nothing more than the encounter with presence
Knowing that you know
And knowing that I know
Is truly more than enough
To make me truly happy
Thanks be to God


Amen
