The Distance Between!

the distance between man and God
is in direct proportion to the distance
between heart and mind....
each leaf on a tree distinct and different,
but all belong to the tree!
the wind has many forms, but is always
the wind...
you speak to me of your God that lives
in holy writings and temples...
i met a stranger today, stopped to listen
as he talked... and knew there was God!
