call-and-response

Lady Chapel, Saint Andrew's Episcopal Church, St Andrews

Picture
 Listening...

waiting in the stillness...
Silence,
​Drifting aimlessly, ​collecting memories,
moments, threads woven together
                                                                                                  Calling....
​the wind whistles through the trees.
Then as the sun appears on the distant horizon,
​the feint melody of birdsong becomes a chorus of trumpets.


Turning away...

A cradle that will never rock,
Ashamed.
​​Barren like a flower that will never bloom
restlessly tossed this way and that
                                                                                              Blessing...

Seed pods burst open
​their contents carried on the breeze
bringing new life in abundance.

Overcome...

Humbled, shrouded in love
Devoted
Pure, innocent, white, delicate beautiful flowers
​overflowing, being  baptised as the float away
​                                                                                               Calling...
Wind billows and blows
​The sail fills, responding, following
the Saints that have gone ahead,
