Undelude

Undelude



All nature, flesh,
prepare for death
by hoarded croft
of hard-won equilibrium,
achieve a fossiled
choirloft
where angels never sing.

The Buddha,
his followers
look alone
at themselves
in still ponds
reflected
unrippling
forever stone.

God walks
His growing garden,
His Son calls,
His Spirit prays,
He seeks
behind a myriad leaves,
naming static stone,
calls dust
to simple trust,
and wants to family
everyone.
