Life Defined with the Letter O

Some say One is the loneliest number,
but Outside comes a summer thunder
and an Otherworldly holiness
arrives to keep her company
with rain playing a timpani 
On the roof Of her humble cottage
Of solitude in her matron Old-age. 

God is Omega,
the Oxygen we breathe,
the One life we live
Only ever alone, yet not.
