Church.
Iridescence cascades from above
Glass melts into rainbows
Cool stone secures my sanctuary
Pine and incense mingle
A crow joins the choir
Peace in this moment
That’s why I come here.
Alone.

Yeah! Great poem! I know exactly what you mean too. The peace and tranquility of solitude and none of the trappings of the congregation to disturb you.

This emotion of spiritualism you describe can be felt even by an atheist like myself. I like the way the images melt together.

This reminds me of how I go out in the woods to do my praying... by myself, nobody but nature and myself walking side-by-side together with no disruptions... peace and quiet, gotta love it.

Bright images to capture just enough of the essence needed to convey "church" without getting mired in the weight of all that it could bring to bear.

dear gordon,
i was sitting around this afternoon looking at some of the postings from the past. i found this one - i guess i missed it the first time around. i wanted to make up for that and let you know that i found it very interesting. i also found it calming and very vivid.
j.jd.
