TREES STAND STILL


trees stand still and so do I
clouds rest softly on a painted sky
when not a breath of wind goes by

who can sail those ships of flame
high above the earth's domain
when so stilly they remain

still the rose so rosely breathes
I breathe too the rose breath in
forgetting that the world will end

the world will end
yet all things 
our God shall mend.
