Better than cake… by Fiona Goodwin

I would like to be one of those people
Who gets their information early in the morning
On their knees.
Who gets ahead of the day
Who listens to the divine in a way that changes her, feeds her, comforts her
More than the sugar in her coffee
More then the sight of a healthy bank balance
More then an inbox full of friends.
Sure, I want all those things
But I want Presence more
A conversation in my soul
A sweetness of connection that outplays, outweighs even cake and spaghetti and chocolate, yes, even that.
I’m starting to think it might be possible.
