But, You Have

I said, Lord, I want to feel Your presence.

He said, You Have.

… in the giggle of a child running barefoot in the damp grass

… in the wind as it blows across the salty sand

… in the song of a sparrow with their melodic trills

… in the lips of a kiss on your freckled cheek

… in the sound of the waves as they crash on your painted toes

… in the touch of a warm paw resting on your leg

… in the sight of each unique snowflake falling from the sky

… in the taste of the juice of a sweet berry on your lips

… in the scent of a rose sprinkled with fresh summer rain

… in the voice of your one true love whispering his unconditional devotion in your ear

Oh yes.

You Have.

… Because I love you.
