The Still, Small Voice

The Still, Small Voice

A Poem by Melinda McQueen



The Still, Small Voice

 

Through the clutter and mire

Does the spirit tire.

Senses go haywire

In life’s fire.

 

An anchor in a boisterous sea,

A vessel of hope and peace.

A gentle whisper to calm the void,

The still, small voice.

 

Seeking something more

Than what a feeble world has stored.

Needing a force to lend,

Stronger than the wind.

 

In a world where tragedy

Seems to endlessly meet,

He is our consuming joy,

The still, small voice.

 

Though mountains tumble

And foundations crumble….

Though all is chaos, and our world shakes,

We can be still through every quake.

 

Just close your eyes,

And listen deep inside.

Let your heart rejoice

In the still, small voice.

In the still, small voice. "
