The Sound of Geese Over the House / Poems

and in the house the prayer on the Prophet

The sound of geese over the house

and in the house Allah loves you

The mountains are full of light and their gigantic shadows are eloquent since they're leaning against the sky and out into space with their crags and outcrops

No sound can scale in a dimension commensurate with the pure expanse of it

The sound of geese over the house

puts a dome of life above us and a sea of life below us and a world of life all around us

and a shaft of living Light inside us
