Flyover

I glanced out the gym window
And in a windshield saw a reflection of geese
Flying overhead. I heard their faint cry.

Besides the obvious recognition that fall is near,
I was struck more by the certainty
That, despite seeing no actual geese,
I had no doubt that the ephemeral glimpse
Reflected living birds.

I sometimes see God reflected
In the people around me. Perhaps ephemeral,

But no less real.
