THIS IS OUR TIME NOW

Though buffeted harshly

Time and again

By these dry winds

That follow and strike

Let not my love

Grow cold

Keep Your still small voice

From being hushed

By the white-water crashing

Over boulders

That otherwise would lay

Obscured and unseen

Below my field of vision

Instead let my footfalls be

Purposefully placed

Lead me to extend my hand

At each juncture

Split open

This callousing heart 

Before the absolute whole

Of its sensitivity is lost

And with it the hope

Of laying claim to your grace

Let my prayer

And the honest intent of my mind

Be steadfast

Unlike they have been
