God, May I See You?


"God, may I see you?"
A silence fills the air
Into the dark I stare with hopeful gaze

... ... ...

"God, may I see you?"
The room is cold and dark
And blank I stare into a blurring haze

... ... ...

"God, may I see you?"
A cold wind passes by
As long I vainly peer into the night

... ... ...

"God, may I see you?"
The desert stretches wide
Alone I scan horizon's dismal blight

... ... ...

"God, may I see you?"
Soft the snowflakes drift
I try to see into the flurry's fall

... ... ...

"God, may I see you?"
Pine needles seal the sky
I look into the forest's closing wall

... ... ...

"God, may I see you?"
The ocean stretches broad
Dimly I watch the great waves crash and roar

... ... ...

"God, may I see you?"
Last twilight closes near.....
I hope to see him on the distant shore

This was a lovely reminder to watch for Him Wornways.  I think this Christmas especially, we all hope to see him in our hearts. Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Best wishes for a wonderful holiday,

This is a beautifully penned piece.
And, yes...may we all see Him in our
hearts, now and forever.
