Calling Out Poem by Michele Clucas

I call out - silence answers
Day by day,
Moving through life
I sleep, I wake

I call out - silence replies
I live as I should,
Searching unknowingly
I wonder, I dream

I call out - silence echoes
My heart reaches out
Tentative, unsure
I smile, I cry

I call out - a whisper answers
My soul touches another
Strangely familiar
I breathe, I reach

I call out - a whisper replies
No longer caught in solitude
Yearning a touch
I accept, I know

I call out - a whisper echoes
You've found me, it says
You are no longer alone
I feel, I love
