Giving Herself Humbly
Don Hynes
Autumn is here
the searching winds
and big drop rain
trees alight with their own demise
letting go in the old way
restrained, graceful, surrendered.
Purity seems impossible
contamination reaching the deepest wells
and furthest wilderness
yet it is morning for one billion people
and again the Earth turns toward the light
giving Herself humbly to every expectation.
