Peace Upon His Flock
The steeple nudges
above tree tops
their foliage moved aside
as God’s finger
points the way to Truths
Love and Forgiveness
lights sparkle like diamonds
from lamp poles
sprinkled below the hill
their destiny
to highlight children
adults and other members
of families
asleep within the castles
of their inheritance.
The sky is filled
with radiant colours
stretching as redeeming fire
and Peace captures
the silence of God’s voice.
