Visit - Limitless

by Hélène Kesting

​

It startled me like a bolt from the blue

stopped me in my tracks,

unimaginable how far

the raindrop-sized Universe had travelled

that drifted in through the kitchen-window

came to a standstill

facing me squarely

 

Full-face the wee heavenly body

resembled to a tee

the One

who put in a kind word on behalf of publicans

 

He then bowed,

humbly, obediently,

no limits did He set on His Love for me

by reason of my re-echoing heart,

almost inaudibly He let out

 

I AM

 

He vanished without a trace

​

Pinprick

by Hélène Kesting

​

That fretful evening, at the evening-meal,

He generously presented Himself

 

Through secret eyes

 

I encountered His Shepherd-form

in the niche of my heart,

in a pinprick of golden Light,

His gaze tender, serene, sad

 

A great deal of time lapsed

 

before I could faultlessly fathom

the letters of Light,

the Holiness constituting me

they were spelling

​
