Show Me

                                                       By David Michael Jackson

Show me the flower then
show me how the dust is in the air,
there,
next to the
window.
Show me the love then
when it was fresh and new
like the flower,
like the dust.
Show me the glint of
the light in the water as it flows
liquid
and wet
into the glass.
Show me
while I am still here to see it

show me then,
the wind rattling the trees like a child playing.
Show me the child playing
so I can rock in my old man chair and know
not that You were here,
 but that I was here
