As It Should Be

I saw you today, 
In the wild brown eyes 
Of a doe. She studied me 
With an intensity I've never known 
And I wondered why she didn't run away. 

I heard your voice 
Reflected in the hawk 
Circling overhead, his power 
Magnified by elegant grace, and I 
Was honored to have you watch over me. 

I felt your spirit 
Singing as the trees 
Bowed to you and I swayed 
With the music, in awe of being in the 
Presence of greatness beyond imagination. 

I saw you today, 
Felt, and heard you in 
The most spectacular images 
And I knew all was as it should be. 
You walk and breathe with me; life is good.
