Questions flying from one angle to another, answers trying to find expression through the lips of those who know or who think they know. Some have sought to unravel this mystery but have found more mysteries and confusion while some others simply believe and find amazing discoveries through their faith.
I may not have traversed the whole universe or have all the world's experiences or belong to a cognoscenti but in all, I see God.
I see God...
...in the innocent beautiful smile of a child...in the unseen moments of aging
...in the trembling tremors of an earthquake.
I see God...
...in the gentle sway and crispy crunch of summer leaves
...in the quiet symphony of night and day
...in the lulling orchestra of the chirping choristers of the night.
I see God...
...in the thunderous voices of a rainstorm
...in the gentle caress of the morning breeze
...in the linear mystery of the language of the palms.
I see God...
...in the echoes of a wind sweeping through the forest
...in the rhyming patterns of desert dunes
...in the painful pleasure of childbirth.

...in the inexplicable strange feeling of deja vu
...in the immortal balance of life and death
...in the twinkling shimmers of the sky's diamonds.
I see God...
...in the idyllic setting of nature's serenity
...in the splatter of gold, mud and dust
...in the sturdy bonds of affection.
I see God...
...in the hidden mysteries of an enigma
...in the passion of love and the love of passion
...in the fear of death and the death of fear.

...in the weakness of the mighty and the strength of the meek
...in the wealth of poverty and poverty of wealth.
I see God...
...in the uncanny wisdom of the sages
...in the merciful melody of the music of forgiveness
...in the perfect imperfection of man.
I see God...
....in the beauty of you and I.
