If Heaven Isn't Here
If Heaven isn’t there And God is nothing more than a well-funded daydream Then where have you gone? I think I know. Because I can feel you You are The choreographer of The Tides The sculptor of silence The secret breath of the wind The infinite kindness of the sun The late-night custodian of the moon The inventor of storms Even though I can no longer see you perform a series of soubresauts along a serpentine stage of sand the kind that weeps down the slender neck of an hourglass until time runs out, or hear your voice that was made to sing with mine or entwine my fingers with yours to escort you safely home Life goes on with you. Everywhere.
