present moment


the last few weeks have been a torrent of activity
and I am desperate to recover the rhythm in my heart
that moves my body first and my mind second
that allows my soul to catch up with me
and take a sacred pause
as if I were a sun-warmed rock
in the center of rushing river
to stand in the deep brooding silence
when all wilderness seems motionless
as if the work of creation were done

for it is
when I walk with God
on the sacred ground of the present moment
I always find Him in an unexpected place
