Raymond A. Foss Poems

Back to Poems Page

Entering the small sanctuary
the dome of the roof
the bright sun shining
within the sacred space

Feeling the elders
the saints who laid the plan
this space of worship
this consecrated, sacred ground

Trying to keep the girls quiet
that I would hear the whispers
the truth of our faith
murmured by ancient tongues

Stilling myself for a moment
a sense of the gravitas of the place
the saints before us
led by your amazing grace
