Poet’s Nook:”Abandonment” by Aljedaxi Rēcha’daf

 

“Why has god abandoned us!” he cried, teary eyed, to the heavens.
“You’re looking in the wrong place,” said God;
“I am here, where I’ve always been:
in the warblings of the brook, 
the whisperings of the trees,

the sprays of the seas;
every beat of a butterfly’s wing, & 
every tweet of a bird in the spring,

is me.”
“It was you who abandoned me,
when you resigned me to life in heaven.”
