Teach Me a Story

Teach me a story of the rock
Full of ages and pages
Of seasons and lessons

Teach me a story of the grass greener than green
Greeting and treating in warmth
Soft with dots that hug lots

Teach me a story of the grazing de...ars
Innocent with a clear conscience
Tracing the steps of each other with confidence

Teach me a story of the skies
Above and below in water colors
And the breathing air flowing in layers

Teach me a story of the masters of all
The trees deep within
The birds free within
That I may live in union
That I may be thankful within

Your work confronts life and faith in its totality and comes up a winner, suppling a subtle wisdom that is gently distributed throughout your poem. Emile.
