I adore the light in the fall. This fall I adore it more, if that is possible. In my office under the altar I see the crooked pine out my window as evening falls. The sun angles different in the fall, more sideways somehow. It illuminates different parts of things. This fall I see there is more to be done. I know I only see a small speck. So I start with the speck.
There is more to be done,
Much more.
I have been given
A tiny glimpse
Of all it entails,
A glimmer,
A sideways shimmer
As the light angles different
This particular fall.
There is more
To be seen
In the fall light:
The crooked pine illuminated
Just so
Out my office window.
There is more to be done,
A possibility or two
Out my office window,
On the bench
Under the pine.
