I wake close to morning by Mary Oliver

 I wake close to Morning

By Mary Oliver 

Why do people keep asking to see

              God's identity papers

when the darkness opening into morning 

               is more than enough?

Certainly any god might turn away in disgust.

Think of Sheba approaching 

               the kingdom of Solomon.

Do you think she had to ask,

               "Is this the place?"
