Hang Time

I’ll Honor Your Own
Sightlines
By Presaging This With

What IF . . .

The Maker of All That Is
Love and Light, Joy and Laughter
Has No Wish
To Be Worshipped and Obeyed,
No Desire
To Be Served.

What IF . . .

She Just Wants To
Hang Out With You,

Listen To Your Heart Beat
Its Stories of
Joy or Despair,
Gladness or Sadness,
Hilarity or Amazement?

Think of Your Stories As
Prayers.

What IF . . .

He Just Wants To
Comfort You,
Bump Fists with You,

Come Up With
The Next Line to
That Poem
You’ve Been Playing With,
Flash You an Image
for That Watercolor
You Daydream About?

Think of These As
Answers To Prayers.

What IF . . .

She’s Sitting With You,
Right There On the Couch?

He’s Got His Arm Around You,
Pulling You Close?
