Notes About The Poem

Out My Window

out my window
there in the distant horizon
graced by a solemn steeple
I sometimes toss my prayers
auspiciously at the sunrise hour
when serenity's most breathtaking

I feel heard somehow
though words are never spoken
the answers seem clearest
at sunrise my soul rejoices

it's a most divine hour
where in extravagance
nature's beauty
knows no bounds
