We only need to be present to witness the extraordinary in the ordinary. This beautiful poem is a reminder of the need for presence in the world so we can be closer to heaven.
In special places,
So they say,
The veil,
Is very thin
That separates
Our world
From heaven.Maybe so,
I cannot say,
But this is
What I see:
That veil
Is like a cloudy sky
Ever shifting
Over me.Sometimes
A gap
The sun
Breaks through.
Then heaven
Is very close
To me.
