My Church Today

My Church Today Were I to paste summer-green leaves Upon the grand arches of a cathedral, And throw seeds on its marble floors, It would be my church and its congregation, In my own backyard. I would hear sweet hymns and a serious sermon, In the blowing breeze calling a waking world, And know the taste of a hopeful heaven, Like the warmth of His spoken word. In my own back yard.
