Calling Her Name

by Elaine Wilburt

“Calling Her Name,” read by Elaine Wilburt.

At dawn he speaks to her alone.
Hearing his voice, she comes to see
he is her Lord, though first unknown.
At dawn he speaks to her alone:
a single word in a tender tone
reveals he lives. Fears cease to be.
At dawn he speaks to her alone.
Hearing his voice, she comes to see.
