My child you’ve asked Me to define
How do you feel a life divine
A presence in the air you breathe
It’s when My child I call you Mine
I’m in the shh-shh of the breeze
Soft flowing through the willow’s leaves
I’m in the chanting of the chimes
The faltering of buzzing bees
I’m wrapped in the most ancient rhymes
Brought through to these most modern times
I’m the warble of bluebird’s song
A testament to changing climes
I’m the magnet whose pull’s so strong
To help right you before the wrong
The crowd you handle on your own
The Single Presence in the throng
I’m in the chances that you’ve blown
I’m in the peace when you atone
I’m in the strength when fears you fight
I’m in the pleasures when you moan
I’m in each morsel that you bite
The prayers you retire at night
I am the final finish line
The practice of a life lived right
So child you’ve asked Me to define
How do you feel a life divine
It’s when My love is mixed with thine
It’s when My child I call you Mine

My favorite line is “I’m in the shh-shh of the breeze” Very descriptive. Wonderful poem.
Thank you, Gretchen.
it is in everything around us, and in your little one…love the shhhh line as well….but also your closure…it is in that bond & love…
Thanks Brian, indeed the divine is everything for those who believe.
This is a beautiful poem…I love the rhythm, the thoughts, the universal and timeless feel.
Thanks Mary. The rhythm fell naturally, the crux was getting it to be felt, regardless of belief. I’m glad you liked it.
This is awesome, Raivenne! So beautiful and full of truth!
Oh somehow I knew you would enjoy it. Thanks Charles.
Very pretty…love the rhythm and beautiful message.
Thank you Bodhirose.
This is beautiful – and beautifully written to form too.
Thank you Tony!
Would that these feelings could last a lifetime!
So true, Bob.
Oh Raivenne, there’s something about this piece. There’s something it is saying to me, but I have not the words to speak them now. So let me just say “Thank you” for this and get back to you later.
Why thank you Mightwar! I am glad you find something in it that speaks to you.
And you’re welcome.
