Poem of the Week

Out of the many interesting poems read in class this week, I had a particular liking for "Gee, You're So Beautiful That It's Starting to Rain" by Richard Brautigan. I have never before witnessed a poem with such randomness and without pertaining to the title in the least bit. However, while this poem makes me ponder, there is a phrase that sticks out as my phrase to "take to the island".

"God lives like music in the skin" (4-5).

I, being a deeply religious person, found reassurance within this phrase that God is everywhere, almost like He is always there for us, because I know He is.
