Eyes of God
...so many ways to see.
A morning rain
fell before dawn
to the steady marching
of a million tiny feet.
I must’ve been dreaming
a crowd had gathered
right below my window
and were calling for me
to join them in their quest
to visit the sea.
But when I went to look
all that I could see
were the wet shadows
of buildings and trees
silhouetted by breaking light
just above the horizon.
As I turned away,
the voices grew louder:
Come with us
and see this world
through the eyes of God!
