I asked if I could walk with Him today
He looked at me
a subtle smile
and nodded Ok

tall trees around us
houses on the hills
we both had light jackets on
for the chill

after a few blocks
we suddenley stopped
He turned and looked at me
and asked
what do you see, what do you hear,what can you smell

suprised
I answered Him and said

I see tall trees
natures beauty
all around me

I hear birds, wind,children to

I smell chimneys smoke,pine
and earth

I asked Him, what do you see?
He gentley smiled and said, Me

I asked Him ,what do you hear? and He said
Your heartbeat

I asked Him,what do you smell?
and He said,it sure isnt hell, but I think it maybe very close to heaven

this man I never got to know before that walk
but
I am glad I did
it was a pleasure and inspiration just
to hear Him talk

I still see Him
now and again
but now I see Him
on the mountain

little did I know then
that the walk with Him
would be the beggining of
a journey

a journey to the center of the heart
where we
walk with
HIM
