by Pavel Chichikov
If He loves you very much but you are proud
He will chastise you until you call for Him
Like a small child in the dark for a glass of water
But if He loves you very much and you are humble
He will come to your shoulder and wait
Like a honey bee searching for a sweet drink of nectar
You will hear Him speak, a rapturous low buzzing
And in the sharpness of your vision He will stop
You will see each stroke of His wings, so quickly lasting
For you He has made and loves and will love soon
On a summer day, and now, in winter passing
