the house with the open window

I could not hear or understand the voice which  guided me. But  at eight years old I went to the rabbi and asked what is God.  I was taken Into a small library lined with books I was told by a Rabbi that I was too young to understand. Now some 60 years later,again  I ask.  What is  God.? For me  I see  him as a man Waiting at  an open window Before I enter My fears call me back. The house is  now hidden I am lost my mind's fields of denials There is the overgrowth with stalks of maise higher then my head. that keep me from seeing where to go or how i got where I am The voice which guided the eight year old still speaks But with age i am losing my hearing I am sure the house with its open window  still stands unchanged He is standing  watching, waiting. In the stillness of the early morning before I am fully woken I might  hear but a single note of his song  we will meet again.
