Into the Fire

I've been tinkering with a little free verse. I used to write a lot of it long before I wrote novels. A remembrance and request brought it on again. Hope you enjoy this one.

Timing

Remembering a moment in that time,

Thoughtful, serious, dissecting meanings of words and glances.  

Rapid, heart pulsing, touched, a dared romance.

Desire, craving, needing 

A closeness.

But it never came. 

Father, thank you for it all. Apart from you, I can do nothing. That much I know. Thank you is never enough. In the Name of Jesus.
