Where He Is


Caught inside the blessing
I wait to see
how it will unfold.

Cool breeze,
cicadas,
a bird calls
from above,
and I listen
hearing only
His goodness,
the feeling of His
faithful Breath
upon my cheek -
lifting my hair.

"Where is He?"

they demand.

And I puzzle at
their inability
to find Him.

He vibrates
everywhere
and fills the music
of voices
lifting from a
raucous playground.

He is contrasting colors
and shifting light
through
fragrant
leaves.

He is Lord
of the Universe
but stops
to smile at me
from
my husband's
eyes.
