The Shape of God
By David Fraser ©
Some of us
Stare up at the stars,
Others at the sun
Or the moon
Or look for guidance
In and among
The rocks and trees,
The gentle breeze,
The thunder storm
And dancing on the waves
Or grasslands.
Others develop
Elaborate images
For the unknown
And drape those
Visions
In parchment and words,
Stained glass
Carved wood
Sculpted rock and concrete.
Others wander somewhere
Amid the pull of forces
While still others
In their searching
Sink into swamps of despair.
We all need to wander
Somehow, somewhere
Within ourselves
To find what shape
Is god.
