NATURE'S WORD, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: In holy moments, when great nature seems
Last Line: Or where we know not, but we trust the word.
Subject(s): Dreams; Earth; Hearts; Nature; Nightmares; World


IN holy moments, when great Nature seems
Hushed and a-listen, earth and air and sky
In all their loveliness aroused from dreams,
Ready for revelations from on high;

We mortals, too, await in wonder then, --
Hearts throbbing like some small, just-captured bird, --
Something divine about-to-be, -- ah, when
Or where we know not, but we trust the Word.
