" Maybe I really can see
the face of God.
Maybe it's there
when I sit with my
patched-together family
for pancake breakfast.
Maybe it's in the power
oft he sea,
or in the driftwood
that gets hurled about
by storms.
Maybe it's in the words
of an ice-cream man
or the joyful leaps
of a dolphin.
It might even be in the pain
of leaving my new best friend,
or maybe
it's especially in that.
Maybe all these things
show me the face of God,
or maybe they just show me
a bit of light
or love
or happiness.
And maybe that's exactly
the same thing."
