Revelation

A timely, beautiful poem with a beautiful message. Enjoy!Revelationby Marilyn KratzThe winds of fall haveswept awaybrown leaves from old elm treesAnd now reveal what summer's greenhad hidden from my gaze.Abandoned nests, their builders flown,stand out in stark relief,Mute evidence of secrettoil that filled the spring with life.I contemplate this lesson taughtby Nature's cleansing handAnd vow to see in everyonethe worth they have within.From Pasque Petals Vol. 74, No. 3Winter 1999Featured image by liz west under the creative commons license on Flickr.
