Shadow Seen

Shadow Seen 
Shadow Seen 
The time seemed to stop at some greater insistence than myself and eye began 
to look around for something found a something overlooked a something 
missed a something usually lost in the hurry hurry hurry bustle of the rushing 
hurry up in a commuter day 
The paddle wheel had stopped and time was gone eye saw the world it seemed 
to disappear and then YES eye SAW GOD. He reveals himself to us in everything 
we see the EARTH and sky and all the living things. Eye noticed the 
hummingbird at rest the thing was profiling for me to get me to notice it like 
LOOK at me 
eye am a hummingbird thing and the wings they have that go so fast and furious 
was not moving that is what eye noticed and such a strange thing and seldom 
seen a hummingbird at rest and then eye remembered the poem that eye 
contrived the shadow of the hummingbird now called Spirit Jesus 
and then eye was doubly blessed because 
the sun caught me and then eye beheld my SHADOW on the ground and eye 
could not belief my eye for it seems that GOD is indeed in me and that has made 
me smile and faith is better kept even for a little while and GOD in Jesus smiled 
at me today in Spirit and in truth.
