The Harp of Autumn
Capilla del Monte, Argentina
When autumn opens its heart to reveal
The bounty of colour held within its awe
We are lured into the silence of crystal blue skies
Whose breast embraces the depth of our souls
Water of the sacred mountain trickles divine
Tickling forth sounds incumbent in every stone
Music streams through the fingers of the fall
Its rocky rhythm beats to the accord of our hearts
What hand have I in this glory? In this luxury of creation?
What mind have I in this music? In this festive Grace?
What song sing I in natural magic? In humble silence?
My final words strung upon the gently falling leaves
Of the autumnal harp
