Contemplation

Where I have looked for God:

1.      In the architecture of a flower.

2.      In the gauzy haze across a day of light rain.

3.      In the mystery of the stars.

4.      In the sacred quiet of the cemetery.

5.      In the irresistible seduction of the ocean.

6.      In the warmth of another’s touch.

7.      In the tears of those crushed by sorrow.

8.      In the pain of the sick.

9.      In the dejection of the lonely.

10. In the hurt of the shamed.

11.  In the panic of the fearful.

12.  In the gentleness of the humble.

13.  In the care of the generous.

14.  In the faces of children.

15.  In the eyes of the old.
