The silence of the
leaves in
earthbound, Glory
wafer sprinkle of communion hosts
gliding on a gentle breeze
drifting
heaven sent
A hush, a pause
stepping
into this quiet, refuge sanctuary
this requiem of season
golden shadows falling
on broken spaces
time drifting…….ever so
slowly…………..away
a peaceful stream of fractured
light, bending through branches
In silent awe I stand
hearing a whispered chorus
chanting……………..
Hallelujah
these maples ,elms, and tall hickories
shedding free
of past
burdens held and steadfast carried
now relieved, upright, free
to face the coming winter’s wrath and
fury of icy winds …….again
