A Hymn

Finding God through the magic of small things in the natural world

Said the human to God: I want to know you.

Please teach me how. Lead me your way.

God said: Start with these small drops of rain

And dig your knuckles into earth’s fragrant terrain

 

Once you see, you cannot unsee.

With only two eyes, sip tenderly.

Magic is Alive.

In everything, there is infinitely more          Growth

So wake the morning with your roar            An Oath

Open your mouth like a baby bird stretching its view

And let the sweet words of prayer speak you

Now      is      infinitely      true      Chronos

A Fractal is, in fact, a cracked vessel, a floating lotus

So play with timetables and fold them into child knots

And seek the teacher who will unveil your blind spots.

You only own that which you give away.

Trust the magic pulsing through your sauté

And know that I will never lead you astray.

If you’ll lead me your way.
