Abstract

This is a poem seeking to capture the sacredness of deep human connection, in this instance, between the author and a twelve-year-old girl whom he meets in the presence of her mother. The poem integrates these types of human encounters with biblical understandings and dynamics of divine manifestations in human beings and human relationships.
