Under His thumb

Under His thumb
 
He was the distant Observer of my youth,
remote enough not to cramp my style.
 
By middle age, I sought a deeper bond,
hoping to escape my fears by settling
 
securely under His thumb. 
These latter years, I take Him for granted,
 
the Great Sustainer, without Whom
there is no Existence and no reason to exist.
 
O child, God is immutable; only ourselves
and our perspectives change with time.
