Oh God
why this river flow
is it for me? No
why this wind blow
is it for me.?..No
why that bird fly
is it for me?..No
why that sun shines
is it for me?..No
everything is for someone else
nothing is for me
and nothing is for us
we all are the tools for you
it is you within us
living as someone else
Oh God...

I like the childlike quality of the questions you pose here, Poet. As children, we often ask "Why", and you answer with the most obvious spiritual answer..'our all for HIM'...we forget, we look away, but always are drawn back by that innate knowledge...Another well written comforting piece. Thanks for sharing it here. Peace and best wishes for the contest. Rhonda

This poem gave me the chills. It made me want to cry. 'We are the tools for you, it is you within us' very well stated. What do you mean living as someone else? Living as we would for our child? I want to know because I enjoyed the poem so much. Truly beautiful and thought provoking.

In fact, we belong to HIM..and It is HE, WHO rules us..but apprantely, we think, we are the owner of self,while we reprsent HIM..and that way we are the someone else ourselves living on behalf of HIM...Thanks for your kind words..
