I Am

I am yearning,
To walk again.
To be able to outlast the miles
To be able to endure the heat
To be able ot peservere on forever
Till where earth and heaven meet.

I am praying,
to run again.
To be able to push on breathless
To be able to blink stinging eyes
To be able to be one with the rhythm
Of feet and running sighs.

I am proclaiming,
That I will fly once more.
Down the alleys of promise and open doors
To talk of potential and diminishing times
To think growing pains to degenerating lies
And for this my Lord I commit it all to Thee
My soul, my body, my spirit and my glee.
