and i stare at the sky waiting for clouds to part

Behind the clouds are stars and behind them the universe and behind it all is God,
But here I am staring at the clouds flying wingless, occluding the stars, the universe;
And God alone knows why my eyes my mind my heart are kept from seeing such glory,
Yet should the sea swallow me, in the last instant before being crushed, my spirit would
Ring with the song of one star which burns in my soul through sea, clouds, and universe:
God planted in me that seed-love, and i stare at the sky waiting for the clouds to part.
