Here I Am


Be present –
like the sun
or the evergreen in the Midwest plain

Be present –
like the poet in his poem
or the fish on the hook

Be present –
like the mayfly
or its predator

Be present –
like Christ on Calvary
or the holiness on God

Be present –
like the numbness in the depressed
or the nothing in the void

Be present,
in sorrow or joy,
as a child
