A Poet’s Call
O, The Almighty One!
The saint seeks
You in meditation.
The monarch seeks
You in domains.
The thinker seeks You
In thought.
The Soldier seeks You
In fortitude.
The orphan seeks You
In gratitude.
And I?
I seek You
In every creature’s expression.
I seek You
In the blue yonder.
I seek You
In my wine chalice.
I seek You
In my heart’s orbit.
I seek You
In my apparitions.
I seek You
In my conscience.
