Molecular Jesus

God and nature in Winter

Molecular Jesus

Mountains reach up through clouds

Half way between Earth and heaven

To grow slower over vast tracks of time

Rocks seek snowflakes coming down

They pray to them from atmospheres

To bring them home together

One by one forever

Down to size where they belong

Catch them before they go wrong

Lost in clouds forever melted

Mountains feel the light

Waters flowing over them

Rivers churning to the valley down

Snow flakes go through children fingers

Play before they slip away in flight to land

On sleepy pine trees by the timber line

Like holy host frozen on the tongue

Caught among the faithfuls hunger

Lost in deeper meanings melting souls

Heaven is a place to gather souls

So vast and wide just above the tundra

Snow mounds fold into the mountains

Drifting, once elevated at that height

Falling all too far from grace

Small fragile bodies drift apart for now

They will come again together one by one

Bring us to our senses where we belong

Like the One who came before

Will come again once more

Cold stands alone forsaken for the moment

Before and after are the same in heaven

The finest particles are formed atomic

The final work on every molecule occurs

Solids, concepts, pure thoughts dwell

His name etched on every cell

The final word is spoken
