Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

I shared a word of grace,
in the sanctuary last night
of a client who is seeking
looking to change her life
to find the means to turn
away from her past to see
another way, to find God
again to live his ways and
be who she knows she can
be. Finding strength within
the words, the living words
of the Psalms, of scripture
Unable to give her these
books, devotionals, tracks
I went in alone, to see her
in the cellblock, but I was
not alone, for he was there
in the waiting room, the
same Chaplain I spoke to
in his church last night to
be the hands I could not
be, the hands to carry that
hope to her, to place them
into her hands, give her
another lifeline. So she
can change that life for
good, for real, for God
and for her little girls
