- Transparent Dreams
Outside my window
I watch Silver Birch with satin bark
pierce wintry vapors of evening.
Celestial calm enfolds the
helpless night in saintly radiance
as Heaven sews her stars,
one by one.
Leaves lie buried
in the breathless hush
of silent prayer,
as all the birds
settle on earth’s terrestrial fabrics,
beneath a silken curtained sky,
where glorious is the blending
of humble ground
and the noblest tree.
