No. 2, Conversation With
The Holy Spirit
Enveloping In Its Fellowship
Speaking these sounds, words
as looking over the day
I am in the moment alone,
with You.

Somewhere the conversation of my heart
gains comfort.
No. 3, Conversation With
The Holy Spirit
Enveloping In Its Fellowship
To be living with life meaning mortal force--
meeting eternal comfort
that is fellowship of the Holy Spirit.
Fire, awe, enveloping now.


These poems were written during Pentecost,
and represent listening to the Holy Spirit.
One hears, and one receives.
Notes From The Study House in March,
No. 1: Festive May Night
As a man, I reply with.
The vine, virginal place within gateway to God ultimate
Christ abiding.
The master speaks of singing us forward
within the paradox of intimacy.

To come back to mercy and pardon;
return again like the prodigal son.
The progressive revelation of theology:
God loves us in invitations for a climate
to receive in trust.
Notes from the study house in March,
No. 2
Living in ego as in anguish.
Rest in the invitation of Christ.
Strength remain in me.
Pursue the pathway of the abyss.

Die and arise in the Lord.

Master tells master, speak there is a yearning
for joy, the deep radical need for peace;
we are made for you O Lord.

From my notes in March, No. 2
“the unconscious ongoing prayer is given voice
by the conscious act of prayer.”

Notes from the study house in March, No. 3
In God of God,
beginning with the mnemonic--
with Christ
beside others.
Around the Abba.
The Alpha.
