Book: Song - Poem 5

yesterday I challenged you to reveal yourself to me
I walked along the streets and saw nothing
but emptiness
yesterday I challenged you to speak to me
I listened to the rustling autumn leaves
and heard nothing but the mysterious breath of the earth
yesterday I challenged you to touch me
I ran through the rain, reached out my hands
and felt nothing but the beating of my heart
this morning I realized
you reveal yourself to me
but not that my eyes could see
you speak to me
but not that my ears could hear
you touch me
but not that my heart could exclaim in pride -
I was touched by God!
