God

When Heaven folds its violet wings,
And Silence keeps the Door —
When Faith forgets her whispered psalms,
And Hope is heard no more —

There moves — a Breath — between the Dust,
A Pulse the grave denies —
Too small for Science — yet it stirs
The Weary — when I die.

No temple holds my wandering feet,
No creed my garment hems —
I walk where human sorrow sleeps,
And sing in shattered hymns.

For when all else has turned away,
We find — in one another — God.
