Array ( [sid] => 155528 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => The Miracle [time] => 2009-12-01 10:59:51 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Sat in a church
Sat on the floor in a mosque
Sat in a synagogue
These are god’s holy places...
But I question
Your church
Your mosque
Your synagogue
What are they but earth’s bricks and water?
The whole universe is holy
Every piece of decaying litter, every blooming flower
Without ugly what would be of beauty?
Without ‘evil’ what state would ‘good’ be in?
My body, heart and mind are my bricks and water
My church
My love, my family and friend
My mosque
The earth
My synagogue
All of these together
My heaven
And to walk on the earth is the miracle
So who needs walking on water?

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
