Oh You Lovely Stalwart Stem!

Summer heat stifled you But in these warm-waning days
You still reach to the sunny-less sky To bloom
In the growing dark
Smaller than your summer show Yet more delightful to see In a winter-soon garden bed
Oh to be like you Reaching up Beyond the Sonless world Reaching ever toward Him
To bloom Even in the thickening dark Even as the world grows ever more
Wearying-cold
Blooming
Because of Him Seeking, trusting, and blooming In a winter-swept and Sonless world.
