The Stewards

And he said unto those who were with 
him (and among all these 
there were many of the noble and great ones): 
We will go down. (Abraham 3:22, 24)

No tresspass theirs while treading mountains which 
They organized from elements ordained 
To bear their feet beyond the seventh trump, 
Elements now allowingly profaned 
By other feet to merit cleansing grace. 
They walk more slowly in the morning light, 
Intent on every herb and bearing seed, 
And touch each other with far more delight. 
Their eyes which measure lovingly the sky, 
While lying back in fields of waiting grass, 
Reflect their far identities as those 
Whose love will fire the elements to glass.
