Jesus My Love – a Haiku poem
I wrote this Haiku poem after an intense session of Contemplative Prayer.
PART 1
Waiting for your spouse
away on a business trip
How long has it been?
Longing for your spouse
A romantic night in store
You burn with desire
Your spouse longs for you
Urgently wants your passion
Tonight you’ll be one
Your hearts beat as one
You find the bedroom chamber
The fire roars within
No inhibitions
Self-giving love takes over
Joys beyond telling
Exhausted, you rest
Wrapped in your spouse’s embrace
It was worth the wait
PART 2
Waiting for your Lord,
away tending the whole world
How long has it been?
Waiting for the Lord
Sitting still, longing for him
You burn with desire
Your God longs for you
Urgently wants your passion
Tonight you’ll be one
Your hearts beat as one
You find his inner chamber
The fire roars within
No inhibitions
Self-giving love takes over
Joys beyond telling
Exhausted, you rest
Wrapped in your lover’s embrace
It was worth the wait
