I’ve never seen the wind
I’ve heard the wind as it rustles the
leaves and needles, and swirls through the boughs
I’ve felt the wind as it blows my hair and
as it drives the snow against one side of my unsheltered face
I’ve seen the clouds move and open and
close and swirl, as I envision pictures in the sky
I’ve watched the wheat in a field, lean and
swerve about, as if God’s hand was playing a symphony in gold and shadow
But,
I’ve never seen the wind.
I’ve
never seen love
I’ve
seen a child snuggled safe and close to it’s mother’s bosom
I’ve heard two lovers resonate with the
energy that they create together
I’ve seen a happy dog look at it’s master
and wag it’s tail when touched
I’ve felt love, I’ve given love, I’ve
received love, I’ve lost love, I’ve wasted love, I’ve rejected love, I’ve
longed for love
But,
I’ve never seen love.
I’ve
never seen God
I’ve
felt God in my heart of hearts
I’ve
talked to God, and I’ve heard God speak to me in unspoken words
I’ve
given God my problems, and I have received God’s grace
I’ve seen Spring
and flowing rivers, lambs and calves, buds and babies
But, I’ve never
seen God.
I’ve never seen the wind and I’ve never
seen love and I’ve never seen God
But I know that they all exist … and my
heart tells me that they are all one.
