Toward a brighter future


Driving through the fog on an autumn morning, 
I watch as the trees take shape before me, 
Some loom and threaten, shaking leafy fists 
While others, shaped like the onion domes 
Of Russian Orthodox churches stretch 
In concentrated curves toward the light 
That lies beyond their reach; 
Gentle arrows, pointing toward a brighter future…
