Prayer
This fall in gold came
and shine above my sky
a soft song sang above the ground
and dyed the soul ocher.
I close my eyes as if in a dream
and I merge into the dawn outside
I become part of nature's call
life with blessing comes into me.
I repeat a short prayer in my mind
golden rain pours noiselessly
I'm looking for words of love and tenderness
and this carelessness consumes me.
A light breeze crept through my hair
my dreams flew ethereally
I became a drop of an autumn leaf
thrill, breeze, in my day radiant.
