Today's Sermon

 Today's sermon starts with dark rainy skies
barren trees and puddles at my feet

and a walk in a mystic fog with geese
honking, communing with the flock

and a lone goose who has been de-flocked
because she is unable to fly

Today's sermon is about a red-tailed hawk
carrying messages to the sky-world

it's about a small white spotted owl
reaching out in a dream the night before

it's about a snicker-doodle dog with
caramel eyes that warm the soul

Today's sermon is about grief and loss
that seems to fit the gospel of the day

it's about a friend who is always there
willing to share your sorrow and joy

it's about a broken hymn that needs
a new chorus to mend the heart

Today's sermon is drinking warm tea
and reading shapes in leaves

and writing poetry without preaching
leaving crumbs of your thoughts

and ends with prayers that tomorrow
the sermon will be filled with light
