The smallest
The Smallest
You hear God speak
and you see God in action
not in the lives of men
with their closed minds
and selfish hearts,
their souls too deeply entrenched;
but in the smiling faces, the voices
the breath and heart beats
of the smallest.
God is here among us
in the open, tender souls
of the children.
It is our doing
our growing away
instead of up
that silences the voice and
blurs the vision
of his presence within.
