A Stranger
A Stranger
I ask:
The Stranger smiles:
With wonder,
"Only cold stones
The Stranger's Eyes "I ask not for your stones."
"No, only open your gate "Yes, Warmth" "The Warmth of my Will." "Really, who are You?" "I Am Who Am!"
"Your Father, "I am your God."

About the Poet
I am 79 years of age. For the past nine years I have been retired, after forty years, from the field of alcoholism and drug abuse in New York City.
I am married and we have two grown sons
and two grand-sons.
My life changed through a grace-experience in 1967.
Writing Christian prayers is a particular interest of mine. This came about by a growing awareness of the
spiritual in recovery from addictions.
I choose, intellectually and emotionally, to believe the Triune God of the Sared Scriptures as my Healer.
