You withered the fruitless tree
“Discordia!” The vinedresser sings
An untimely harvest, sweet patience my plea
-
My soil-bed unkempt, You can see
Roots buried deep in loose soil I cling
You the withered the fruitless tree
-
With death in this moment from sin I am free
Yet this drying, pulling, uprooting does sting
An untimely harvest, sweet patience my plea
-
Command me now and I’ll fall to my knee
Chrysanthemums, poetic lexicon, what can I bring?
You withered the fruitless tree
-
I hear there is still a crown by the lee
Worn by a lamb, shepherd, servant and King
An untimely harvest, sweet patience my plea
-
Shadows lengthen, diffused light covers me
Respirations deepen in this my awakening
You withered the fruitless tree
An untimely harvest, sweet patience my plea
