Into the Silent Land Page 31

To close my eyes and feel Christ's presence
     surround me.
I wrap my arms around Him and His arms
     encircle me.
The left side of my face comfortably rests on
     His chest.
And my eyes are squeezed shut.

Christ's bearded chin rests on the top of my
    head.
A slight smile matches my silent intake of
    breath.
Christ buries his lips in my hair -
and for a moment we breathe in unison.
His quiet exhale matching my silent inhale.

All my years of yearnings, tremblings and
  inner turmoils for myself and other dissolve -
and I am comforted by this man's divine presence.
