The Drop is of The Flow

The Drop is of The Flow

Is a little drop of water, less important than a wave?

Is a single link less worthy as a small part of a chain?

Is a ray of sunshine, shining, not the reason we are warmed?

And do single clouds contribute to a needed good rain storm?

*

We are small parts of the Cosmos.

We are solitary souls.

Yet we share the Heaven’s matter,

and we share Creation’s goals.

*

Oh, to ride the Wave as just one drop,

to be within The Ocean;

to find within my own small self,

the reason for the motion—

The Motion of the rise and fall,

The Motion of the light,

The Motion of the great and small,

The Motion of the day and night.

*

In God, all life is moving,

and moving ever more.

God is the motion of our being,

The Endless Flow from shore to shore.

*

I know not where my speck began,

Nor where my wave will go.

I only trust that in God’s grace,

I’m One within The Flow.
