Intimacy - Reflection

What dialogue 
does the One who is Three 
seek with me?

Of relatedness
what was, what is , and what is to come:
Desire and expectation 
frustration and disappointment;
Rigidity, chaos and in between;
Beginnings and ends;
Disorientation and reorientation
Absence and presence;
Barrenness and fecundity;
Desolation, travail and beatific life.
All in silent communion
with the Spirit of grace.

And my response
what shall it be?
Complaints of a hard heart -
perversity, futility and jeopardy.
Or ecstatic intimacy -
to pursue the One who is Three 
with all heart, mind, soul and strength.
