When God Cries
When God cries
his tears gently touching
the ailing, flailing earth
scintillating stardust falls
to the wintered ground below
twinkling diamond-lets
tinkling the ground
tingling the ears
with a crinkling sound
sparkling the trees
in light bright white
blanching our sins
reaching out to us by
transforming our eyes
with a bejeweled sight.
lyrical and lilting

Thank you, Bert. God is crying a lot right now in New York City. And with good reason.

Universe is everywhere, hence no center to point, or direction to send our thoughts of despair. I have noticed that It listens to the deepest cries of our soul. It teaches us how to find our own food, but only seldom feeds us freely.

this comment is destined to prayer of despair (made a mistake — concentration low)

I don’t relate to the word ‘sin’, it’s too catholic. Sin, in its archaic meaning means: to be off target. [a hunting analogy, which I don’t like, however, much less offensive than the catholic sin thing].

Sorry you find the word “sin” offensive. I am writing from my experience being brought up Catholic and Protestant. I still believe in sin although I think of it differently than in the Catholic sense. Thank you for your comment. Our differences add interest.

I don’t find the word offensive, it’s just a word that I can’t relate to. Sin, in its archaic meaning, is more compassionate because if one is ‘off target’ or ‘off the mark’ they can adjust their behavior. Whereas, “sin” in the catholic terminology, is riddled with guilt and shame.
Not that some actions are not worthy of guilt and shame, however, many just need better direction.
