there are times

there are times
when you
feel the absence of God.
when death
arrives, 
for one.
the cupboard bare.
when sickness overcomes.
when war
breaks out,
when crime
occurs
of a deadly kind.
when the heart is broken.
we wonder where He is.
up there,
out there. somewhere
in some sky.
is He watching, does He
care.
or are we fools to fold
our hands,
get on our knees
in prayer?
