Longings

I don't know your name.
I don't know where you live or what you do.

Are you fearless?
Do you speak German?
Did the full force of God hit you square between the eyes one day,
or has it been a long, slow dance?

The only thing I know is that the shimmer and hue of your soul
brings the glow out in mine.

And we'll talk.
Oh, how we'll talk!

My gosh, girl. You were up late--especially after taxes!
Thank you for visiting my blog and for taking the time to comment.
I want to say the same to you--beautiful words, truly.
God has made, is making you beautifully, wonderfully you.
"Longings" is excellent.
It helps me feel the hunger of my own heart and reminds me that God doesn't miss a beat. He will comfort and bring beauty amidst the brokeness.

Gwen, that is absolutely absolutely beautiful. It makes me so painfully aware of my own longings. I love you! Have a wonderful show this weekend and a great visit with M&D! Love you and miss you so very very much!
