Burnished Stones

by Jana Peterson Pawlowski

Herriman, Utah, USA


If I could write a sonnet

to help thee gather me in;

it would embrace the

noblest words—etched in fine detail—

upon some passing stone.


And beauty unspoken

Would grace the bareness

there—until Thou chose

to fill me, Lord, and

burn to life the barren stone.
