GOD'S PARK poem
by Richard L. Provencher

God's Park

Dexter cows are mooing in the
pasture, the herd of
them snacking on hay and
sloshing aside the slough

where ducks gobble flotsam and
six llamas raise snouts
admiring the surroundings.

Green grass, September's scudding sky
branches within reach, poplar
leaves teasing appetites;
blending animal, earth, sky.

And somewhere up there, God
is smiling.

Not far away donkeys trot in single file,
a horse grazing nearby, two
ruffed grouse strutting proudly, and
an eagle shuffling feathers

accepting thermals lifting this marvelous
creature to greater heights.

Now God has a very large grin as He
travels in a burst of brilliant
light from one creation to another

weaving layers of goodness one
upon another.
