Apr 15, 2001To Rise AgainHorizontal Winter holds its breast against the groundGravity insists on nothing more than down Prone or supine, we lie in wait At most, in hope, we lie In hope once more to rise To rise again Alive again As Spring derives from Winter And if it happens yet again It happened once to start with The miracle is never less For all its repetition What happened once, all Time ago Still happens every moment Spring is just a season; Easter but a day The Force that fosters Life extends Beyond the bounds of Time The Thing that started everything The Thing that Spring remembers Has linked our moments each to each Defeating Time’s dispersal We rise again Alive again Now, Then, and Ever After The recognition in itself Certifies our Blessing |
