Golden Forest Floor

 

brilliant, yellow trees, cry, Glory to God!

carpeting the ground, with a generous

alms of golden leaves; a lofty chorus

of fluttering foliage, waving branches, and

 

bounteous sunlight; a royal broadloom of

marriages and ordinations worsted

and spun from the time that ever was and

ever will be, cuddles the forest floor,

 

in anticipation: a welcoming, courtly

reception for the final return of

their King, a King with Feet to Trod, a King

Whom all creation eagerly awaits.
