Leaf

I see the leaf
that’s from God    and of God
   and I know
If both weren’t true
   there would be    no leaf,
there would be nothing at all.
An absence    an empty
   not even    a no-thing
a void   with no name. 
   All    is    because 
   God holds    everything 
In the palm    of his hand….
Like you and me.
