We search the sky for God, while he hides behind the eyes of a child. (Poetic.Expl)
The Irony

Yahweh,
hides in children,
the wealthy and the filthy,
resilient and forgotten, the
disgraced.

Wisdom
seeps from small mouths,
unfed, unlistened to
while learned men turn faces high
in search

for God
up in the sky.
A child speaks His message, 
that God hides out in all of us,
searching,

waiting
for us to grasp
the irony. You must
accept the child within. Then you'll
find Him.


A String Cinquain (2/4/6/8/2 repeated in several stanzas)
