I see his fingerprints on the sky
The glassy globe of our existence
From under the covers of night
I look at the pin holes in the blanket of the sky
Knowing that there is a world beyond
This small place I call my home

As I gaze into the heavens
I know in spite of how really small I am
The breath of life
That causes me to exist
And the hand that put each planet and star in place
Are one

I loved the message and the imagery,
especially the "pin holes in the blanket of the sky" and the "fingerprints on the sky".  Well done.

How wonderful that you can see the truth through the spiritual eyes of His Love. That He is our very existence and His Love our only Joy! Beautiful, dear frind. Love, Ellie

A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails.

Beautifully written. It's an awesome thing to gaze upon the night sky, and let you mind wander into the Awesomeness of God.

You've written that well!

I know not what the future holds,
but I know Who holds the future.

I don't question YOUR existance - GOD

I love the way you describe Gods awesome ways. His love for us is larger than we can see. We are small yet he loves us far more than we can know.
Beautiful poem.
Hugs,
Deb

Songbird,

What a spectacular revelation you have shared with us that the One who spoke the vastness of space into existance is the same as breathed life into you and I.....  Kind of makes me feel not so small at least in the mind of God.    Bob <><
