I'M DONE HERE
© by Patricia Halliday
I climb onto His lap: a child.
Slowly,
I take out my heart
and lay it in His hand.
I take out my brain,
with all its thoughts and concerns,
and add it to my heart,
in His hand.
I unzip my body,
peel it off,
and add it to the pile.
I take the cord
that holds my spirit
and tie it to His finger.
He closes His hand gently,
all safe.
Empty, I climb into His shirt.
He covers me;
buttons me in. I can't be seen.
I am hiding in His Love.
I lay my head on His chest
and listen to His heart beat.
I hear the rumble of His deep voice:
no words, just rumbles and heartbeat.
I rest and wait and
see what He will do.
