Dark Church Poem by Leslie Philibert

Dark Church



angular
behind black,
a suggestion of brick;

the spire moon
shadows the roots
under stars

slight warmth
of sandstone
and ticking birds,

small movements
between gravestones
and curled brass

a dark box
of stone waiting
for the edge of light

A wonderful poem, Leslie. I live in a 160 year old church
