Ivory and Ebony



It is usually easy for me to see God's presence in nature.
The butterflies, dragonflies, birds, clouds, and flowers.
The sunrise and the sunset.

The other night,
as I sat in the audience and listen to my wife play the piano,
I was mesmerized.
From those simple black and white keys,
music filled the air with such soothing rhythm.
With her fingers playfully gliding and hopping among the keys,
I felt,
not saw,
His presence.

Who else can create
who else can release
such energy
such comfort
such peace.
