Lost Cathedral

Lost Cathedral
Ancient Stone
The Whitebark Elder
And the stray Primrose

Holy Violets
Love takes wing
Beware the Larkspur
Opening

Grace unfolding
Heed the morning light
Beyond all knowing
The Heron taking flight

We the Witness
Trace the centuries
What tree rings are amiss?
All quiet in the rookery
rookery rookery rookery

Beware the mortal tendency

Could we be forgiven?
Could we be redeemed?
What if we could be redeemed?

The water carries
The question I can’t hold
If the Violets listen
Their future is told

Do you believe
A prayer can find
The Lost Cathedral
Of our Mind?

The loss
The lost
The loss
The lost

Could we be forgiven?
Could we be redeemed?
