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 |
