Deep Humility

...
If the sun
warming this spinning globe
is but a glowing atom,
what, then, am I?

If the comprehensive ocean
lapping every shore
is but a dewdrop
squeezed from the reeling cosmos,
what, then, am I?

And who am I to even ask,
my brazen shout reverberating,
less than the intimation of a breath
in the chorus of wonders?
