The Heavens Releasing It's Light

I Can Hold

I Can hold a flower in my hand

Inspecting its bud and bloom

But to understand it is something new.

I can hold a kitten in my hand

Caressing its purr and fur

But to understand it, I wouldn’t endure.

I can hold a diamond in my hand

Admiring its sparkle and shine

But to know its timeless mystery,

I’m doubtful to find.

I cannot hold the ocean

But I can see its waves and roars

Never comprehending what’s beyond its massive shores.

I cannot hold the sky

But I can see its clouds and sun sink and rise

Always wondering how its colors devise.

And how much less

Can I hold You in Your Might and Power too -

For to understand You, You wouldn’t be You.
