The All

I found You where I met You

In a place called peace

Sitting silent and still

I waited for You to speak

Your voice, so kind, familiar and perfectly clear

Responded with these apt words concerning me

“Don’t get lost. Remember why I made you.”

Humbled and grateful

I took Your instruction to heart

And committed Your words to memory

Reciting them ‘til they became like armor

For my protection

I carried You and them back to this world

That is loud, tempting, and filled with distractions
