Do children make you happy?
I asked God.
He didn’t answer.
He just passed me some coffee
and together we stayed up past
dawn laughing
and crying.

I love this conversation… and maybe it’s more the question itself that matters than the answer… it sounds like a wonderful night.
The searching is sacred isn’t it? Then the relationship comes. Thanks! 😊
Oh I love this sweet little poem. The answer hidden in plain sight.
Yes, I think God works that way. Thanks for the comment 💖
It all depends on your definition of happiness…(K)
True, if we can only discover that ♥️
This sounds like a nice friendship with God. Sounds like one swell being!
I love the curiosity, rawness, and humor in this piece. Beautifully written.
Thanks! Short and sweet this week!
Sometimes the questions and answers aren’t important. What comes after is.
True. Thanks for the comment!
You’re welcome.
It’s been awhile since I sat down for coffee with Him. He’s begun to think I don’t really exist.
This is one really fine work, TS. Hooo-Raaahhh!
Thanks! ♥️
An interesting conversation. Nicely written.
Thanks 💖
You are in good company, smiles.
Haha! 👌💖
A wonderful take on a meaningful conversation. I liked this a lot.

So much beauty in so few words! 🙏

God as counsellor — interesting. Very nice.
Thanks ♥️
Nice, really conveyed something special in very few words.
Thanks! I appreciate the comment!
Yes, I love this and for me it is the true friend, just being with you as there are not answers for the tough questions.
I’m glad you enjoyed it, thanks 💖
