The Peace of Wild Things by Wendell Berry, animated

Fr. Scott reflects on a poem by Wendell Berry from his Sabbath Poems Sabbath Poem: “1986, I” Slowly, slowly, they return To the small woodland let alone: Great trees, outspreading and upright, Apostles of the living light. Patient as stars, they build in air Tier after tier a timbered choir, Stout beams upholding weightless grace Of song, a blessing on this place. They stand in waiting all around, Uprisings of their native ground, Downcomings of the distant light; They are the advent they await.
