Feeling the Depths

Lifepoems

the dark sea shimmers
pale sand glows
in the moons soft beam.
little white capped swells
flow rhythmically toward the shore.
my shirt flutters in the gentle wind.
a multitude of diamonds
speckle the crisp sky.
not even a breath of a cloud
blurs the spectacle.
so tiny
so insignificant
this planet
compared to the whole of the vast universe.
and here I sit
on this tiny pebble
staring out over a magnificent ocean,
seeing only surface reflections
unable to comprehend
even the few wonders
that lie beneath this tiny rippling blanket.
______________________
I am a sick and selfish race.
so caught up
in my own superiority.
I stand alone
on these beautiful shores
staring out over Your ocean
my hands raised
shouting
THIS IS MY UNIVERSE
I AM GOD
______________________
so here I sit
in the pale sand
shrinking away
from the moons soft beam.
my head in my hands
wondering
unable to comprehend why
You still love me.
