Who know the meaning of real love,
Love that abides in the soul…
Who knows...

A raw dark, persuaded by rusty leaves
	who break through the hushed prayers,
		vibrant hopes and dreams,
			stirring light that lives beneath the heavens,
	confiding joy, revealing wonders, confessing

The fading colours in a trembling leaf,
Perhaps a portent of the coming cold,

He stills the moments, as my heart rests
Soothed, comforted, blessed

He colors my dreams, my hopes, my prayers

Always calling – softly, breathless,
On wings of flakes, so quiet,
Silence drifting, hallucinating,
Dreaming of the moments,

Soothing away the trembling ache,
Broken whispers of light,
Blessing away...

The farming machinery and the field equipment were silenced
And the sounds now heard were raindrops...

Of motion, devotion, the sunshine and...
