[Oe List ...] Apropos the Unknown

[Joan]

Thank you to our very own Poet Laureate.  I would often think that when you spoke there was a poetic quality to it.

A poem

The Unspoken Yes 
What we can not seemakes our blood to flow,our lungs to filland our bodies to breathe.
What we can not hear lives in silence everywhere,comforts us alwaysand saves our lives daily.
What we can not touchis beyond all knowing,but arises in our awarenessand seeks us before we ask.
With the eyes of a lover,open, intense, insistent,this Holy Mystery invites usto meet in our yearning. 
In such gifted times,when darkness glowsand silence humsthe Unspoken Yes,
we begin to live again,as at birth and death,while the universewatches itself expand.
