What words do to me every week?

Sure to light a smile:
I turned to speak to God,
About the world’s despair;
But to make bad matters worse,
I found God wasn’t there.


God turned to speak to me
(Don’t anybody laugh)
God found I wasn’t there—
At least not over half.
-Not All There, Robert Frost

 I was reminded of Ruskin Bond's The Eyes are not here, though both aren't exactly related.

  1. Nice Poem. The short story:' The Eyes are not here ' was good too.
