Pastels and Mists are not the Heights of Mystery
The air of brilliant autumn days here in
Vermont has something unexplained to say.
New England has a revelation twin
To mystery. Heavy with a light of day
This revelation’s sense is not revealed.
The mystery is presented but not known,
Retaining truth and certainty concealed.
In other words the mystery is full-blown.
This is why the revelation is more
Real and palpable and splendid than
God’s visions. It delivers heavenly lore
Which only autumn oversouls may scan.
..Explain it, how these scarlets, golds and greens
….Can hide these paradoxes in fall’s scenes.
