Love Poem: Wind and Dust

Wind and Dust

Wind And Dust

Even his commandments are greater than we are
and I have heard, "You cannot please God in the flesh"
I think, then we should try and please him in the spirit
and I look around
to see how we try and please him in the spirit
under his vast, bright, blue sky
where people live and people die
and I wonder what is the difference
wind and dust
and how can we love him
when we have trouble loving each other
and how can he love us
when we have trouble loving each other
and we will find what we seek
mostly judgment
or at least it seems to me
and what are we
sisters and brothers of the living breath
hosting thoughts and others
in the flesh
