A Bird In the Hand

If I hold a little bird in the palm of my hand, it is as if I am gently holding the heart of God, even though the unnamable One is that infinite Phoenix of Light. For if I am gentle with this God in my hand, I shall be forever forgiven, forever redeemed.

How have I never understood that feeling before?! It does feel transcending of the moment it's in. Excellent poem that allows the reader (or me, the strange reader) to leap right in
