oh tree standing tall
can you hear heaven’s lament
when the veil is torn

oh tree standing tall
can you hear heaven’s lament
when the veil is torn

shadows on the way
won’t make one stumble and fall
but may hide what can
six o’clock alarm
metal being banged or pecked(?)
silly woodpecker

a sudden silence
– the washing machine stopping –
sleep returns slowly
stillness after dawn
a line of stoic windmills
stands at attention
