Imagine a white world

where white flowers fall

from a white sky

to rest in soft piles

upon white grass covering

white fields, white hills

roll away

into

a white distance.

 

A world so hushed,

footsteps make no noise,

voices are stilled, gestures

suffice, and all thought rests

in its origin,

the white mind

of God.

 

Because I can imagine

this white place, hold it

for a second in my mind,

can I imagine God?

Does he imagine me

imagining?
