if we only knew
the healing of our witness
standing with them
sitting in silence
in real presence
such healing to convey
offering a hand, hope
strength for another day
we can share with each other
passing, fitful, driveby greetings
or we can share Christ
in real presence with one another
sometimes silence
listening to them
all that someone needs
not solutions to their problems
