From the highest mountain peaks
Moon’s pale and gentle beams
Like guiding legs of life
Alight in shadows
Up-lifting treasured
Mortal souls
Cradling each softly
In tears of His Love
Comforted with
Winter’s purest feathers
Fluttering overhead on
Wind’s sweet breath
Sending those
Goose-bumped arms of love
To carry an unfathomable
Goodness upward to
Our Father’s ever-lasting love
