God’s Eye

A Short Poem

God’s Eye

In the sky
at me stared God’s eye.

“I see you, God!” I cried.
Answered the sky:

“A voice distant calls,
of mine a son perhaps …
yet nowhere do I see
from where this voice calls out to me.”

I waved my arms and pleaded
and blinked God’s eye.
Answered the sky:

“Mountains don’t speak
with words like these,
as not the desert, ocean,
river, or forest trees …
yet nowhere do I see
the son that calls out to me.”
