Oaks Near Town
by Alan Harris
|
Black and green under sunlight stand these aged oaks, seasoned wisdom in wood. "Believe, believe!" preaches the chapel bell from a spire in town to the congregated trees which, distanced from doctrine, stand firmly unnoticing with their branches spread wider and trunks planted deeper and roots drinking more serenely of a living water holier than even believing can ever believe belief capable of believing. Clanging soon ends and relinquishes to the forest its sacred silence. |
From the book The Wheel of Yes (1995)
