I wrote this short poem during a fast day. It is where I was that day.
I Hunger
Away from the paths I usually walk,
I hunger.
My mind clear, grains green all around me,
I open my heart, my mind, my soul today.
Fill me up.

About Tom Bolton
I'm a Husband and Dad, a former Enterprise Systems Manager at the City of Milwaukee, and a Disciple and Lay Servant at First United Methodist of West Allis.
As I study the Bible, sometimes I feel moved to work through my understanding by writing poetry. I also am continuing to learn in my dialysis experience and pursuit of a kidney transplant.
Sometimes I just feel like writing about something that grabs my attention too.
