I wrote this a long time ago, but felt myself go through those stages today... SO... here it is.
Oh God, are you home?
I knock, but nobody answers.
When I am feeling so alone,
Dear God, smile on me!
Oh God, are you there?
I call, but get a busy tone.
When I sit at home and stare,
Dear God, smile on me!
Oh God, who are you?
I look, but the name tag is blank.
When I bend to tie my shoe
Dear God, smile on me?
Oh God, I'm going to sleep
I give up, you don't exist.
When I smile, and when I weep
Dear God, smile on me.
Oh God, you are around
I heard from you last night
When I could hear no sound
Dear God, you smiled on me.
That's a very nice poem. It conveys what I'm sure many people feel.
ReplyDeleteWhenever I want to see how God looks, I just look around me - at everyone and everything - or just look in a mirror - or read a blog like this one. ;-)
I'll never get to see God in totality, only many little parts of God that make up the greater, infinite whole.
Thank you.
