       [center]~by Patience Strong[/center]
       [center][font=andale mono]Go into the woodland
       if you seek peace of mind--
       As this time when Nature's mood
       is gentle, quiet and kind,
       When soft winds fan the trembling leaves
       about the cloistered glade--
       And paths go winding deep into the green
       and breathless shade.
       Where nothing breaks the silence
       of the warm and fragrant air--
       But snatches of sweet melody . . .
       and wings that rend and tear--
       The stillness of the windless dells
       where shallow brooklets flow--
       And shadows fleck the water
       as the sunbeams come and go.
       An unseen Presence walks the woods,
       a sense of holy things--
       Haunts the dim Cathedral aisles;
       and every bird that sings--
       Is like some morning chorister,
       and every breath of air--
       Seems to bring the secret murmur
       of a whispered prayer. [/font][/center]
