what God
what God takes for granted
such as
gold and silver and diamonds
which he buries on the
dark and deep places of the earth,
man has taken too seriously
to his shame, because what is really important
is the heart, fresh air, clean sea, blue clouds,
pale moon, rising sun, cool grass, a smile,
a bond, a touch, a hand, an embrace
a word, a whisper.
