Ancient Melody

Posted on March 23, 2011

These days are stirring, ready in the womb:
hours building bestness,
forming fully muscled moments
when creation exits the tomb,
shaking off the dust,
pouring out her songs…
sounding ancient melody anew.

Love your verse, Ruth. I’m putting it on the refrigerator and will re-read as I observe spring’s slow arrival, here. Thank you!

  :0) thanks leslie… we’re getting snow here in spring today and it seems creation is exiting the tomb a bit reluctantly! but the blooms are gorgeous regardless…
