Wilderness is not tame, not safe

Yet how lush and free

It calls to me

My very soul

We were not created to be contained

But let loose into the world

Driven by wonder And worship

What is that on the breeze which stirs?

It is an echo, a call

An invitation to something wild, yet wonderful

I can’t stop my heart from reaching out

Leaning forward, desperate to discover more

A yearning not satisfied by the kisses of a lover

Not satisfied by the black in the books

Nor the house filled with beautiful furnishings welcoming all who walk through its doors

Not satisfied even by the shrieks of a child’s joy

There is something more

Which beckons

Something I fear as much as long for

It is wild

It is free

The Father’s love

Waiting

For me

What do you think?
