where God has taken a step

The forest his cathedral

Imposing luscious full moon dominates.
Much like a perfect midnight cathedral setting.

Pipe organs to the stars
You breathe in and out
You bend and sway
To the voice of God, but
Dip your hands
Among the moonlit lakes

The Filtering of the Light

The beautiful
monarch butterfly
reminds me of a stained glass 
depiction of Jesus
high above me
on a cathedral wall
made blurry by the height
and my imagination.

as they race towards
a splintered ray, they reign

Pensive under a midnight vault:
What artist could conceive such infinite beauty?
I'm awestruck within nature's cathedral.

Ice

The woods are a crystal cathedral,
   trees sculpted of glass.
Brittle branches clink
   when the wind whispers -
glistening, deadly beauty
   frozen in time.

I stood in awe of Cathedral art
When someone expelled a booming fart
Beneath a candle

Farewell My Castilian Bells

Farewell my Castilian bells
Ring through
These hills and valleys
Ring through the
Depths of my soul
Ring through
These cathedral clouds
Ring out loud
Farewell, my Castilian bells
