God/dess Speak To Me

[pam]

God/dess Speak To Me
A child whispered "God/dess, speak to me" And a meadowlark sang but the child did not hear.

So the child yelled "God/dess speak to me!" And the thunder rolled across the sky. But the child did not listen.

The child looked around and said "God/dess let me see you" And a star shone brightly. But the child did not notice.

And the child shouted "God/dess show me a miracle" And a life was born. But the child did not know.

So, the child cried out in despair. "Touch me God/dess and let me know that you are here!" Whereupon God/dess reached down and touched the child. But the child brushed the butterfly away and walked on.
