“In the blink of a breath...”

“THERE”

     In the blink of a breath,
                                               he can live.

               In the strike of a thought,
                                                           he can dissolve.

and…

               in the blast of a diminished moment,
                                                                             ignored can he be.

     Never to be seen,

               always to be heard…

                                             he lives at your will.

 

     A refiner who,

             out of mind,
               and never in view,

is ceaseless to carry you.

 

     Over the pain of trials,
             
                    beneath the canopy of joy,

and,

     in your every hour,

                   he dwells,

 

                  A constant nurturer.

                 An abrupt refiner.

                                                   A living presence

                who,

                        above your pain,

                        and,

                       despite your laughter…

                                                 ever thrives.

                      Never Departing,

                      Often Reviled.

                                                The Alfa.

                                                The Omega.

                     Creator of magnificence.

                     Destroyer of crumbling coffins…

                                               can be HE.

                    The hailed Redeemer.

                    The blamed Masochist.

 

                                                         All the while,
                                                                                 Listening.

                             All the while,
                                                     Seeing.

     All the while…

                                   THERE.
