Crescendo of Grace...


...at this hour... a Winter Day

the blue of the sky streaked with white 
the brilliance of the noon hour sun
the brown of the barren branch and bough 
the emerald of the evergreen trees 
the flutter of golden and russet leaves of fall 
yet taken to flight by the wind
a garden view from my window 
the orchestration of color, form, beauty
hear I in the silence and soft whispers 
the gentle wind, a crescendo of grace.
