Sitting . . .

Just in the act
of sitting
receptive and still –
just in the desiring
to pray –
is the moment
of grace.
         
Just in the small attention
given to letting go
is the dying itself.       
For God delights
in my desiring
and is content
with my restlessness.

God sits
with my nothing,    
gently loving me
in it all.
