A Piedmont Stream


God

is

a Piedmont stream.

Wandering, quiet,

hauling mountains.

Pulling in trees,

swallowing our trash.

Not one bit racist,

not one bit privileged,

not one bit scared,

ready for us,

ready for the kids,

already

flooding our home.

So, friends, nothing

to do

but wade in,

turn into deer,

and travel the pre-dawn

greenways of the nightsilver

Lord.
