A moment comes when coal becomes a piece

Of heaven, pure and diamond in strength.

A moment comes when wooden matters cease

And turn to stone.  The wood turns into strength

Of rock for almost an eternity.

The peat became that coal.  The coal became

That gem.  Limestone’s sempiternity

…..

Occurs when it becomes white marble.  Lame

Affairs are crushed to precious hardness prized

Long after they were smashed or coolly drowned.

Calamities of eons are disguised

In beauty, spiritual as perfect sound.

..We cannot say when transformations made

….These ravishments.  They come from God’s long shade.
