Glisten
 |
| (Found here) |
every tree in the forest
should be decorated
with lights, since that is
a tree’s true nature.
Sometimes, after
a cold rain has almost
drowned the leaves,
this bright miracle happens
a baptism. They glisten
in the deep forest,
whether we see them,
or not.
Like the trees I long,
hope, trust, to shine
with a light beyond my own.
To join the incandescence
of the whole universe,
giving glory back to the God
who is its Light.
