Spirit Of Spring Poem by Steven Federle

Spirit Of Spring



If we trust God to act in us, God will act in us.
This is how our lives become prophetic.
Thomas Merton, The Springs of Contemplation

Spirit of spring,
gleaming
fields, marsh
weeping.

Oh, trust the rain!

With sacred grief,
it will lead you
to prophecy:

bird-song in
the foothills;
heavy grapes;
the tall
summer
grain.
