OMNIPRESENCE
Borne on the air by surging wings,—
Above, below, about, around,—
Up, up he soars and blithely sings;
Nor fears the ground.
Covered by waters, ’neath, above,
He lives and knows the sea as all;
Nor doubts he of the deeps of Love,
Nor fears to fall.
Compassed by Love, man lives and basks
In sunshine blest; but sleeps a clod,
And breathes Him, dwells in Him—yet asks:—
Where, where is God?
