Into the cathedral of the trees

Leaving my cares, my day behind me,
stepping beyond the grass, the brush,
into the autumn forest, resplendent,
precious, bathed in varied color, in light.
 
Entering worship, sanctuary,
into the cathedral of the trees
focusing on the sky, the canopy,
grace, singing from my knees.
