Have I heard from above?
It is very late
And words refuse to
Show up on the page.
Compelling page.
Whimsical page.
Purposeful page.
This time Divine healing.
Earlier evening spent
With Lebanese woman
And her depressed daughter.
A paraplegic in chair.
Apartment in Windsor
Totally re-designed.
For handicapped.
Nothing coming, poem-wise.
Well Dummy, howbout
Lifting up prayer
For the woman in need.
For the page to come alive.
Presto…twelve minutes.
One of my best.
I shall always remember
The visits.
