I wrote this a week ago, but I just got around to posting it now...

God is here
that's him in the trees
can you hear him in the wind?
The sunlight dances
reminding me
that God is here.

Wherever you see beauty
in nature, in music,
in life
God is there.
He's there in the still of night
in the crashing of waves
whenever you need peace
he'll be there for you.

I don't know why I
didn't always see it
so many times
I blinded myself with anger -
self absorbtion -
and I couldn't hear
his peace in my heart.

Listen.

I can hear him in the wind
God is here.


Oooor I could do the ending

I don't know why I
didn't always see it
so many times
I blinded myself with anger -
self absorbtion -
and I couldn't feel
him in my heart.

Listen.

I can hear him in the wind
bringing peace to the world.
God is here.

Which do you like better?

I really like this poem! It is the way I feel almost every time I go walking around in Acadia. I like the first ending better. :)
