Description
My God spoke to me in the autumn rainsand the glut of fiery leaves
and the squick of mud under my shoes
and the smell of chimney smoke
My God spoke to me in a friend's smile
and the laughter of good times shared
and the fellowship of shared food
and the promise to always be there for each other
My God spoke to me in the first winter frost
and the warmth of a fire
and the beauty of crisp snow
and the taste of cinnamon
My God spoke to me in the nearness of my family
and the meals we shared
and the stories we told
and the songs we sang
My God spoke to me in the first light of spring
and the golden daffodil blooms
and the treeswallow's song
and the spring-born calves finding their legs for the first time
My God spoke to me in the darkness of night
and the glimmering of stars and Milky Way
and the eclipsing moon
and the silent kill of an owl
My God spoke to me in the heat of summer
and in the buzz of flies
and the lowing of cattle
and the smell of fresh cut hay
My God spoke to me in the roar of thunder
and the blinding white of lightning
and the drumming song of the rain
and the howling lament of the wind
My God spoke to me in hard work
and honest living
and the love of family and friends
and the turning of life, death, life
My prayer is on the page
My prayer is in the laugh
My prayer is in the very breath
My God spoke to me,
and I delighted to listen.
