through the trees

what beings flit from branch to branch in light
both soft and clear under a pearly sky
we don't feel fear and yet we wonder why
such a thing this morning just seems right
where we were caught in a despairing plight
yet overcame the monster and the lie
went moving onward as the day rolled by
these are the things that come into our sight
when beyond morning we behold the day
unsullied by such things as fear and pain
the weather will all elements alloy
there is we hope a better clearer way
we long for the warm gentle touch of rain
but the calm moment brings to us its joy
