a cloistering silence

the hum of the refrigerator, the fans
the words I had finished
offered in silent prayer
Lord I had given them
over to You

a cloistering silence
wrapped tight around us
silently praying
for so many who are burdened
so many in pain

so many who need Your touch
Your loving hand
praying in the silence
for someone special to us
these many names
