Laughing with God

Love is that strange creature
stalking us in the night,
attacking by surprise.
Like a virus it comes
many times
without us knowing
that we have already succumbed
to its clutches.

Even if
we don't know why,
there is a reason
for meeting who we meet.
In the end
all becomes revealed,
meantime,
we have to act
a lot in faith.

The world is magic,
and therefore
the whole of existence.
Life is the manifest magic
of God.
God must get a blast
at all the derivatives of Creation,
the interaction of an atom,
the exquisite creation
of a flower,
the cyber connection
we now share,
love spilled
over the fields
for centuries,
shared at the beach
extending forever
the reach of Creation.

If God laughs with us,
shouldn’t we be laughing?
