Maria Manobianco |
BETWEEN SILENCE |
outside the rhythm of the beads
there is a silence between prayers
the broken link of anticipation
swallowed breath of awe
sacred moment of blessings
quickened heart of the beloved
between words unspoken
actions not taken
reality and dreams
the fullness of the cup
after the thirst of the run
the silence of rest
there is an empty space
where disappointment burrows
and opportunity slips from reach
there is a light between contemplation
when hope tightens its hold
and life silences no to yes
