ORCHESTRAL CONCERT

Music from the strings of instruments
cradled by agile men,
or blown through metal and wood
Struck on skins
Plucked on harps.

In the music, loving rest.
          Then dramatic outpourings
          of grief and struggle,
          ending up triumphantly:
          bursting forth in LIFE
Reminding us of now and ours,
reassuring us of new discovery
in old things!
Old things seen in different light
pointing once again to God.
