I'm ready if you are

This morning I am ready,

If you are,

To hear you speak your new language.

The silent word

The empty gesture

The gracious stillness

The lovely moment

Each thought, each motion

Waiting

While you speak

Your non-intentions

This morning I am ready

If you are.

The End is Nigh ►

Hazel, this would be a lovely song lyric too, sung softly accompanied by a lovely jazz piano..A perfect Valentine moment..

It is like the anticipation of anticipation..I'm just getting a picture of the batting of eyelashes (maybe Morse code?) and lots of smiling..

I love the receptive tone of this poem.
I believe that sometimes silence brings out all the splendours within us.

Through that waiting and silent observation our spiritual dance begins.

Well, that's how i see it. Thanks ever so much for sharing.
