You are

The sun I turn toward

The rain that quenches my thirst

The earth that stabilizes

me

And not only me

But also every flower

in this field

in this world.

You are.

This is an attempt at a poem in response to the prompt given in my Sunday School class, Imago Dei, this week: “Write a poem, story, or other ? using metaphor to describe God.”

If this prompt inspires you, feel free to add your own poem/story/? to the comments. (And if you’re local and don’t have a church, I recommend mine)
