Feel

There's a feeling I feel

When I stand alone

Out under a bright starry sky,

Or before the wide expanse of a sunset


I don't feel alone, but feel small

When I stand on a mountain with a valley spread out before me,

I don't feel scared, but awe

When I sit in a meadow kissed with wildflowers,


Or listen to the ocean waves crashing on the beach


It is a feeling that is sometimes fleeting but at others long enough to savor

A feeling of being close to my Creator, close enough to whisper,
engulfed in the beauty of Creation.
