Who is God?

along the roadside
headed East
her thumb stands
in the cool breeze
as wisps of brown

blow across states
she weaves stories

through rings of light
as I grow
eye to eye we stand

stubborn and strong
two beans in the pod
jumping borders

spinning heads
as time continues on
new generations

change roles
age dissolves
in between

as our friendship grows
we ride bareback
answering for all to hear,

“Everything is God!”
