AtonementA Poem by Donovan H. Sauith
Far away from industrial disease,
Near the center of all things unscathed, Perched high among the lofty willow trees; A forlorn crow, in the darkness, bathes. In his solitude he sings to the Earth, His broken-hearted psalm from long ago. In silence he speaks of his vanish worth. Through the harsh winter and new-fallen snow, The crow sits and waits for his redemption, To reconcile for a bygone time. Mistakes and faults on his own preemption. Until one day his bells of freedom chime.
