I think this poem can relate to so many, and different religions, different God's. The poem gives hope and understand, with and without beliefs, and does so understanding.

What do I mean
When I say God?
A man on a cloud
Dispensing curses
And blessings
With insouciant abandon?
No -
I mean that entity
I've never seen
Nor dreamed
But know exists -
That is -
And knows -
Knows all
And wields
With justice
That succumbs
To mercy
When the heart
Is right.
For
After all
I breathe
And am aware.
What other reason
Could there be
Then that
There is
An entity
A force
A presence
A reality
That reflects
In all
That is.
On this
Blue jewel
Apt oaf,
Adrift
In eternity -
The heart of
All the cosmos,
Pulsing with life.
Echoing what it creates
Now



Addie Williams


.April 25, 1983



(part of this poem was scratched out, but wanted to record it anyway)


While time takes a breath
For once
At least
If not
Forever?
