White Faith Poem by Emmanuel George Cefai

White Faith



Soldier column of the white
Faith

Thoughts white, thoughts slow
Thoughts of suffering

The haunted anvil in the
Well of the monastery
Struck rare at night
Last night
But struck

And a monk errant by
Deep midnight
Saw a lightning
Of red
With white days

Then the dawn
The trees were still
And
Rustled not of winds
Nor sung benighted
The nightingale
