The breath of God (a meditation)

Breathing out – and the universe expands,
breathing in - and it vanishes…(from sight only)

Like a black satin tablecloth laid out
over an invisible dining table,
where the planets and suns
are set like plates and glasses…
ready for dinner to be served…
we are eating from planet Earth,
and how plentiful the food is!
When the time comes
and all bellies are full,
the giant hand gently draws back
the tablecloth and silverware,
folds it in, breathes in… to rest…
until the next breath
spills out more exquisite food
for all to share…
