A Welcoming Hymn

The deeper you care
   the more remote you become

What the present reveals
  no clock can outrun

The past and the future
  for others to know

This journey one-way
  where only you'll go

Those voices who call
  pull you deeper within

Not lost but alone
  taking flight back to Him

As Jesus and Mohammed
  and Crazy Horse knew

The path to true knowledge
  doubt ridden and strewn

With the old voices silenced
  new voices begin

As your eyes slowly close
  -to their welcoming hymn

(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2018)
