To Find You

A call to the Creator

Stand on the highest mountain,

Do you see him there?

Walk past a rushing fountain,

Do you hear him here?

 

In the midst of a blazing fire,

At the center of an earthquake,

From the top of a cathedral’s spire,

To the calm mountain lake

 

In a raging gale,

I see you there.

In a storm of furious hail,

I hear you here.

 

From the burning desert to the grassy hill,

I know that I can hear your voice,

It speaks to me so soft and still,

But to listen to it is my choice.

Wow....... How many times I have stood in a storm in the night, feeling the thunder rumble beneath me, talking to he, that talks to me.... I absolutely adore adore this poem.... Not many people "get it", but you do and that is so cool... That is the point of our relationship with God, to listen to him, for him, in everything.... Sometimes we stray but he is always there to meet us in the end..

Beautiful piece.
I love your rhyming it comes naturally, and makes your poems sound so much more poetic.
This was very deep, and quite meaningful.
is this piece about God?

[Mike Wolfe]

Thank you so much, the rhyming is something that I have definitely tried to work on. And yes it is

[cimmy wuv xxxooo]

you don't need to your rhyming is perfect.
Oh iv been thinking of writing one about god, but I can't think..

I generally use a passage of scripture and my life situation to influence my poems about God. This one came out of the passage in Kings where Elijah is depressed and God shows up. It came out of a time in my life where God was really speaking into my situation

Im writing one now about god, Im not sure if its very good though, got inspired of a song called Lead me.

[Mike Wolfe]
