Waiting For A Miracle Poem by Reshma Ramesh

Waiting For A Miracle

Rating: 5.0


Are u waiting for a miracle?
for divine intervention
for angelic encounters
to walk on the water


When you look into the eyes of your child
you are looking at a miracle
when you smell the hair of your little one
you are smelling a miracle
when you feel the warmth in a friend
you are feeling a miracle


Pretty eyes of the impala, colors of butterflies,
Delicate flowers, sweet fruits, thorny cactus
Baby in the womb, healing hands of a doctor
Cookies baked by a mother, planes built by a father


It is the love we have in our heart
The power to do impossible and still be humble
why do u look skyward
when the miracle is in you
why do you wait for the miracle
while the miracle is YOU.

Right on the mark! Life is so full of everyday miracles. Who needs a burning bush when the miracle of life itself is all around and within us.
