You don’t have to go looking for God.

He is within and around you,

He is never very far.

In the space between your inhale and your exhale,

In the buoyancy of your breath.

He is the glow that softens your edges.

He is the breeze that kisses your skin.

He is the sunshine that warms your back.

He is the music that speaks to your soul.

The Shore

Our toes in the sand

close to each other

Independent, but never alone.

Waves gently washing upon our feet,

our ground,

our foundation.

Each new wave,

a moment of forgiveness.

Each new wave,

a moment of peace.

Each new wave

softening the shore that supports us.

Allowing us to make our own prints.
