Of course

I get to spend a lot of time reading. This morning, I opened Mary Oliver's Devotions, to read

I Wake Close to Morning

Why do people keep asking to see
     God's identity papers
when the darkness opening into morning
     is more than enough?
Certainly any god might turn away in disgust.
Think of Sheba approaching
     the kingdom of Solomon.
Do you think she had to ask,
     "Is this the place?"
