poem by Sparrow Mattes
Sparrow Mattes
Cold breeze lifts the veil curtain
Rain taps the windows
Ice pelts form then quickly disappear
Thunder and lightening fill the mid-morning sky
Miles away a train sounds it's warning
High above, the jet's sky roar fades to hush
Rolling wheels with rain grooves tread the nearby street
The cat lays beside; curled in a cuddle of warmth
Her snoring joins the strange & wondrous symphony of sounds
I am in stillness, within a weave that is always in motion,
It is mid-morning
This is my altar
