Thin Places

Thin places,
  between
    here and there,
      seen and unseen.
Visible, invisible,
   now you see it,
     now you don't,
        the thin veil.

Thin places,
   in the field
    shepherds
      saw angels.
A glimpse of glory?
  An earthy coming?
    Holy mingling,
     heaven and earth.

Thin places,
   around Paul
    on the road,
      blinded.
Too much glory
   for eyes to see,
    heaven came,
     upon the dirt. 

Thin places,
  angels hovering
    saints praying,
     over there.
Just beyond,
  out of sight,
   still there,
    behind the veil.
