In the Quiet

Often i enjoy being with You in the quiet. i am so grateful that being in the quiet with You is not uncomfortable. You know how sometimes a lull in conversation will cause an uncomfortable silence. i never feel that with You. In fact, it gives me time to imagine sitting at Your feet...something i rarely am able to do.

Just being in Your presence causes an electricity between us that we both can feel without any spoken words. Yet, eventhough it creates an excitement, it is also the magnetic force that pulls us together and calms me, centers me.

i can imagine what it will be like when we are both old and gray as You sit reading Your catalogs and i sit silently beside You...probably not on the floor because of my arthritis... watching You, feeling Your power, always knowing that Your ownership of me defies all words, and knowing that i continue to be Your most prized possession.

Thinking of You until we can be together again...
