Top Floor

Gary Edward Geraci

humbled in human step

come Creator

through a mother’s impeccable

nurturing womb

a straw stable in an animal’s cave

 

Bloom!

an able bodied Man hangs on heartwood

Heart pierced

reposed on altars

hidden - Most Sacred Host

 

the housekeeping regrettable

but there He IS

your most secret post

but of original sin -born not

seeking you out

 

an active pursuit

His Will: to long for you

longing for the day when

you will look up

looking up

 

looking out my office window

i see You above me

through the glass of the skyscraper

next door -  top floor - a Lover peering down

hoping to catch my eye - my heart.

 

-Gary Edward Geraci

  • orchidee

    A fine write Gary. I looked up - but fell off the roof! doh! (heehee).

  • Gary Edward Geraci

    Thank you Orchidee. That’s why Jesus gave us the Church: something to hold onto when the sands start shifting.

  • Suresh

    Your belief gives you, your strength, and your words.

    • Gary Edward Geraci

      I agree Suresh. Belief, or faith, paired with reason; both faith and reason to inform, to form one’s conscience - eternal salvation/union with our Creator the goal. Thanks for your read and comment.
