You Are Here

Where are you?  I think or say

And without pause I hear You.

 River babbles and branches
knock.  Breeze rustles.

 Wind grazes my cheek
And there—I hear my name.

 Yes, you are all around me
And if I choose to slow

 I can hear you call
And invite me to stay


 


In your sweet presence
And absolute peace

 And throughout the day,
When I have left my chair

 and long gone about my way
I stop and listen and

 you are still here
Even when I am unaware.


 


Let’s meet again tomorrow
And never not meet, I say

 I love you my God.
