A PSALM FROM TODAY


A PSALM FROM TODAY

 

Nothing touches my thoughts like the presence of your name!

The butterfly whispers your praises with its wings!

 

The dolphin stands in the footprints you left on the water!

 

Boulders roll like marbles at the touch of your finger!

 

I pray to imitate the stars

Whose wills are but to go as you direct.

Life’s galaxies nudge me and my orbit slips—

Yet you lift up fallen stars.

 

If your miracles shone from the heavens

We would see the diseases you healed;

The people you fed;

 

And forgiveness—

The light of the sun!
