ENCIRCLED BY HER GENEROSITY
The fruit tree's trunk,
a vertical radius..
sign of pi
.. is encircled by
her generosity..
round her feet
lies a circle of fruit
.. some of it will be pies
Elsewhere in the woods
the sun's divine current
is transformed into currants
DIVINE WRAPPING
Infinite are the simple nonharming
wrappings the Creator provides
for His* fruit creations.
Out of the sod
the Almighty God
creates pea pods
Husks of coconut
Walnut shells
Lemon rinds
Apple peels
And some like
the kumquat
and the grape
need no wrapping
at all.
-saiom shriver-
* God is beyond gender..
Some use the male adjective..
some the female and some
avoid the subject altogether
