Restoration

leaves to unfurl
songs to sing
spring’s beginnings

Faithful

every bud’s opening
was a restoration
of faith

“Set me a seal upon thy heart”

beauty seals
the ragged cracks
mending the broken heart

 

Between the Field and the Clouds

with the crop given
the field speaks to the clouds
of respite and restoration

Restoration

balm to sorrow
the earth smiles
sunshine and flowers

Respite

noon time shade
and the company of flowers
completes my peace

The Beauty Of

winter’s still life
steals my breath
restores my spirit
