"...Concern soon fades..."

Concern soon fades

by Joe Holuta


No matter how dark or winter the day, 

Neither mountain high, nor the valley place

Love and mercy run

Run side by side

Railing trials, pains, veer away


Troubles, couriers of kind to meaningful mercies

Today, stark white, dormant and snow covered beside 

Turns bright lavender, alive in the field another day.


Put an ear to the track, not heard through the air, 

signal, alert the approach, Mercy arrives,

as all concern soon fades to a distant train.
