Stone Cathedrals of Glenwood Canyon
Stone Cathedrals of Glenwood Canyon
Stone cathedral spires rise sharply from freely flowing waters -
Birthing renewal through eternity’s eyes -
Lifting up to the eternal
A psalm, a canticle, to serenade the seasons,
Singing celebration in Heaven’s waiting ear;,
Reaching down to lift up
Majestic mountain praise through hallowed halls
With lyrics of the hawk and meadowlark -
Walls decorated by the many hues of whispering aspen leaves
Fluttering in perpetual praise and clothed in cleansing rains;
No prodigal peaks
Sneaking away from the thanksgiving song
While a winding thread of chanting melody follows
The path of renewing waters,
Sounding then resounding -
Captured then released in sanctuaries of red stone
Cradling in the waiting womb ever breathing vitality
Rising upward on wings of sunlight
Shimmering with celestial awakening and the waning light;
Eternal beating pulse
Stretching up for majesty into a bottomless sky
Feeling winds of winter storms - tickling stars in moonlight;
Embracing ever new cathedrals
Formed by flowing winds and winding waters.
