I see Him when

Not when my soul stays from me far apart, 
Nor see with eyes, but with what dormant lies, 
I see God in souls struggling to rise, 
When my soul’s mute, a mere witness in heart, 
Forlorn and lost as lone tree in desert, 
In mother's selfless love I sure see him, 
In dreams she dreams that few care to redeem, 
Seen clear if mind's mirror’s made clean of dirt, 
I oft see God in man's selfless judgment, 
In a poor man's precious last piece of bread  
That he feeds a hungry dog, heart with head, 
In every life from ants to elephant, 
See Him on plants, in thorns much as in rose, 
In friends, feel-hearts much as aliens and foes.
