To Feel

I walked out to feel

the sun on my face,

to allow my limbs

to stretch and wake,

to move away

from the virtual,

so much of my time

spent inside a computer

program where there 

is no warmth, 

just pixels of information

demanding my attention,

but outside, under a tree,

among the little daisies,

I find such relief,

if even for one quiet

moment to remember

the singular truth—

God is love.
