    To Dance

    I run to You
    Seeking refuge- solitude;
    Yet, in the silence
    I desire Your voice to speak-
    As clearly as you speak to babes
    That sit on this world and play.
    I seek Your wisdom here
    Among the wind- despite
    The silence of my voice.
    Lord, show me Your heart,
    Reveal to me simple things
    That I might be confounded by
    Them- that I might better understand
    This thing that You call love.

    The love of a Father,
    A Friend,
    And a Savior.

    A love that reaches across
    My shoulders and holds me,
    Embracing all that is me-
    Creative and not.
    You are my Refuge, Lord-
    That is what I seek
    Here in Your hollowed place;
    What our relationship has made
    Holy- a place that leaves me homesick.
    So sing over me,
    I can hear you on the waves.
    Oh God, my Mighty Counselor...
    I desire what You have for me.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
