November Sunset

Heading: In the beginning was the word ...


November Sunset


Beloved,

what music lies

in the skies

to make

clouds move to it?


Hold fast the still

soft moving?

Poise the light

white

bright?


Make sound stand still!

Hold it fast!


Hush, trees!

Oh breathe, no bird!


Let the loving

Word

cast

down its sea’s

song.


Shake,

Heart!

Break!

Wake!
