Divine Symphony

Syncopated flutters of the heart.

Each thump patterned after,

while simultaneously rebelling against

the previous beat.

There is a rhythm,

the racing and stumbling of scarlet in vein

to keep up with the cries of soul.

Breath resounds like melody,

ethereal notes rising and falling

with the brilliant palm of God

as Maestro.

Warmth is brought

through diverse skin,

delicate and rich palettes

harmonize to form

one triumphant sound:

Unity.

His bows of grace

trace the strings of our spirit,

gentle swells of joy

that crown man's mind

with noble truth.

What is humanity,

that in such simple frame

can the symphony of God

abide?
