GOD WOULD KNEEL DOWN

a poem written by Daniel Ladinsky from the works of St. Francis of Assissi

I think God might be a little prejudiced.

For once He asked me to join Him on a walk 

through this world,

and we gazed into every heart on this earth,

and I noticed He lingered a bit longer 

before any face that was weeping,

and before any eyes that were 

laughing.

And sometimes when we passed

a soul in worship

God too would kneel

down.

I have come to learn: God

adores His

creation.
