The Beauty In Silence

I don't believe in the sun because I see it.
No.
I believe in it they way it illuminates upon the earth, warming one's back on a summer day and brightening the smile of a cheerful child playing on a Saturday afternoon.
In the same way,
I believe in God in the way he illuminates my life and so many others.
I see God not physically but within everything:
In the genuine smile of a child,
In the way trees sway, flowers bloom and skies create formations far beyond my comprehension and capable of so many interpretations.
And the way I feel Him in my heart and see all the silent yet beautiful things he has bestowed upon my life and this being why my dear.. 
I believe 
For I know my faith is far greater than my sight and that my soul speaks louder than my eyes 
ever could

This is a wonderful expression of the depth of your feelings. Two suggestions if I may, first, check out the contest tab. I think your poems are quite good and you would do well in the contests if any spark your interest; also, the forms tab has various poetry form definitions. If you would like a challenge try a new form. I believe I've read all of your poems, I'm looking forward to more.
