I stop…mid stride…
I sense his presence in the gentle rustle of the leaves,
as he slowly makes his way towards me..
The trees weave and bow in admiration,
Overwhelmed by his ubiquity…
He swirls around me, gently strokes my hair
And caresses me in his loving arms…
I stand frozen, living in the moment,
Enduring an intermittent connection
Between our soul and heart…
The encounter prolongs for a few blessed moments,
And my whole body gives away…
I fall to my knees yearning and desiring…
My spirits soar high, and for a momentary flash,
I forget all my agony and misgivings,
Relishing this state of Euphoria…
So lost that I lose track of time,
And I sink deep down mindful of his departure…
He left the way he came…
The air abruptly knocked out of my senses,
I fumble around desperately,
Trying and failing to retain him with me…
He leaves me to my woes,
His withdrawal adding to my torment…
I cry out in anguish,
Calling out to My Savior…
"Come Back, My knight in the shining Armor!
And redeem me of my past sins…
Let me feel revived and rejuvenated…
Interlacing with your conscience..
Enlighten my being and breathe a new life,
Into my soul…
Envelop me with your tenderness,
And let me feel protected and treasured...
Come back My Prevailing Wind,
As you slowly make your way back,
Your imprints fresh on my living soul…
For I will always be there waiting for you,
To be shrouded in your quintessence…
To get lost in your warm embrace…
To find myself in you…"
