Amber and Rust

Nature's beauty, a sweet refrain
Soothing deep and lasting pain
The chains of life fall away
Color blooms from hues of grey

Ancient mountains, valleys, rivers
My heart from pride it delivers
Lofty heights ringed with mist
Where man and nature coexist

Walking among sentinel pines
My body and soul realign
Underfoot leaves of amber and rust
Dispelling anxiety with the lightest gust

Divinely wrought through wind and water
Able to see the mark of the Potter
Ravines that hold the coolness of dark
Flying free with the sparrow and lark

Rippling waves dancing in firelight
The choir of the moon eliciting delight
My spirit communes here with the Creator
Putting off lesser and seeking the greater
