Belief-Where Is God Poem by Mary Mc Creath

Where is God?
Outside?
Inside?

'Everywhere is God! '

In what outside is God?
'Inside,
what is outside is He'.

What,
inside,
is God?
'That inside,
which makes things be'.

Grass
What makes you be?

'Soil from the earth,
rain from the sky,
sunlight from the sun,
that passes by.
These make my being show.
These make my being grow.
But is was there before the sun,
the rain,
the soil,
made it grow.
What makes me be,
I just don't know.'

Tree,
What makes you be?

'Water,
light,
soil called me forth,
I live,
from what they give,
to me.
But they do not make me be,
That's something deep inside of me.
And what it is,
I cannot see.'

Bird,
What makes you be?

'From egg I came,
and mother's warmth
she fed me chewed the food for me.
And so I came to be.
I fed on worms and seeds,
and came to be what you can see.
But worms and seeds,
and mother's warmth, help me to be.
They do not make me be.
That's something deep inside of me,
And what it is,
Eludeth me.
