i smiled

eyes closed
so it was only me and God

hands raised
out of reverence
thankfulness
desperation to draw myself closer
to Him

i sang

slightly off key
loudly
from my heart

the words
" . . . a child in awe . . . "
resonated

the voices of those
more on key than myself
built exponentially in volume
as the song played on

for a moment 
as i looked up to my hands 
stretched as close
to my God
as i could let them be

i envisioned the angels
singing with me

i smiled.
