apologies to Allan for my arrogant comment "I know very well what it sounds like when Jesus talks to me"...Not always I don't, sometimes (like anyone I am sure) I lack clarity. However, I think I usually know when he is NOT talking to me...that is what I meant. And I sounded arrogant and conceited...

here is a poem (seeing as everyone jumped on my joke bandwagon, I shall leap onto this one)...

It's been three years I think, since I floated away.
I wonder how long it was before you noticed.

I heard about what happened, I tried to squeeze my eyes shut,
but my tears broke through in spite of me.

Just like when you carried my sack of coal,
I cried for you for days.

Then yesterday i met you for the first time.
It was different but i was unchanged.

At least that is how i felt. The same.
I wonder how long this time, before I dissipate?

how long before you notice?
