MOONSIDE

Starlight through the skylight
Moonlight just above the roof
Fireflies flickering flames
Random to our eyes
In a dizzying mercurial display
Flitting to the tune
Of trilling frogs
And the flutter of batwings
I see goblins in the windows
Alone would be terrified
With you here beatified
By the beauty of the silence
Punctuated by the frogs
Spotlighted by the moon
And the sparkling stars
Whose dust makes up
These rented bodies we carry
While inside heartbeats
Tick away our lives
To the beat of a flashing firefly
Or a flickering star.

The wilderness
is my cathedral
The trees
my buttresses
Hay bales
my statuary
Flowers
my stained glass
A babbling brook
my organ
Frogs and toads
my choir
Fields of wildflowers
my incense
Thunder storms
my high mass
A very diverse congregation…
From cows

to snails and turtles


to gazillions
of insects




Deer sometimes come round

Butterflies abound

Moths, too

Birds of every hue


All that’s missing is you
but you worship your own way
doing charity every day
more than I can say
