Thought
Migrating birds on beating wing
Despite the distance still can sing
If heart and mind be soothed
Listen, absorb and be moved
Birdsong free in forest glade
As brook knits a mossy braid
Buzzing insect round leaf flies
None to closed ears recognise
Pause and take a breath to praise
Feel descending peaceful phase
Wait to hear the melodies new
Enjoy God’s special rendezvous
Prayer
O Lord who waits in every moment and is present in every place, how patiently you wait for me to recognise you, absorbed as I am in busyness. Thank you for waiting and meeting me in moments of stillness and wonder.
