Fragrance Of Prayer


And King of heaven, sending light
Most beautiful to clothe the day,
And grace of sleep to come by night.
                                                                                         Universalis Hymn








                                                    Apple blossoms 
                                                        are falling 

                                                    through the evening 
                                                        light

                                                    that is curling
                                                        and draping

                                                    the slender arms 
                                                        of branches

                                                    pearling the plush
                                                        of petals

                                                    as if bedecking
                                                        the forms of spring

                                                    to go 
                                                        lovely

                                                    into the 
                                                        night

                                                    like a bright fragrance
                                                        of prayer.
