The Flower-Fyrd

Halt, take in the flower-fyrd whose faces gaze above.

        For God doth formed these instruments,

                His glory from below, a friendly fere  of His free-love.

Colours abound and smells ablaze, coddled carefully by sovereign grace,

        Created in over-many shades, creation requests contemplation,

                God receive praise from our glory-bound place.

 

Flee to the forest and walk in wonder

        Dew-flavored florae that arise from thunder.

God of Glory, we alms-guests  seek,

        Only to find in mast-lands  so meek.

Blest by back-woods, expansive, brave, and blazoned above

        Humble inscription inciting and inflaming the in-carnation of love.
