FINDING TRUTH

Your children keep searching

In every way known

In places from ocean to sky

Into elements unknown in places not shown

In longful quest again and again we try

Peering deeply into Your loving creation

In our sense of place, we look for a trace

Of the what and the wherefore and why

In time and in space in our sense of place

Yet searching with such limited eye

Into the smallest of things

Where our senses can’t see

Searching the infinitesimal sight

Prying into the dark, breaking pieces apart

Trying to open the light

We search places too small to follow

Looking and prying for the beginning

For the core, the origin, the initial basis

And find data oft times too awesome to swallow

In our humanity impossible to process
