Something New

I do not know what will come.
I am listening for direction
but no person can show me
unless with the Spirits intervention.
I know where guidance comes from.
I am listening to the heavens;
patiently I am trying
something new
I have to do.
I have to try for
I can not just get by on my own -
a person needs grace
to keep up to pace.
I do not know
how what will come.
I hope I do not miss it the first time
though I know I will not miss it forever.
He’ll press it to me
soak me in it
till I notice His instruction
that surrounds me.
I’ll think ‘I should have been listening’.
Or I could find it directly
despite my human tendency to be ignorant.
I could hit it in the air with my prayer
and spectacular fireworks would emit
from the collision between earth and heaven.
I admit, I hope I am hearing
but more I hope more for fireworks.

i think you’re listening/hearing all the time. you are obviously seeking/asking for direction…or help in choosing the right direction. many aren’t aware that there are choices. they’re reactive. youth has a tendency to make things seem muffled at times. nice poem.
