My Personal GHOST

Last night my husband and I stayed at the Menger Hotel in San Antonio. It's supposed to be haunted by ghosts. Being in the hotel and seeing all the people dressed up downtown made me think of a Ghost I don't mind having around, the Holy Ghost. My reflection of His presence in my life inspired me to write this poem. I hope it blesses you.

My Personal Ghost

Because of Love,

I am haunted.

Because of love,

I see and feel Him,

Leading me, teaching me,

Putting me in the know.

Helping and Comforting;

A shelter from the cold.

Because of Love,

Each day I am haunted.

Because of love,

Each day I receive it.

Gently, kindly

Descends like a Dove.

A constant nudging;

It's never enough.

"Watch out," "Don't touch,"

"Be careful," "Come this way,"

"Look here," Go there,"

"Step out," "Don't be afraid."

Because of Love,

Each day I am haunted.

Because of love,

Each day, I strive...

.........to obey Him.
