Windchime Visionary

Windchime Visionary
David J Walker

What I saw was 
	The harvest 
	Of course

Standing at the end of 
	Fresh sewn oats

Every stalk 
	A prayer 

Uttered in the name of rain
If nothing else

Uttered in a blue tinge of
	Skeptical sincerity  

Kneeling in a meter of
	Experience 

Quietly listening for answers from
	The voice of God 

Who roars like thunder
	Or whispers the inaudible 

Answers but only after
	We are exhausted 

What I saw was every 
	Good and bad past thing

Repeating their crimes
	Competing at times 

In the incomplete sentences 
	of windchimes
