Air for G String, by Evelyn Scott

Air for G String

White hands of God
With fingers like strong twigs flowering
Rock me in leaves of iron,
Leaves of blue.   Hands of God
Fashioned of clouds
Have finger tips that balance the almond white moon.
The pale sky is a flower
White tipped and pink tipped with dawn.
White hands of God gather the blossoms with fingers that hold me,
Cloud fingers like milk in the azure night,
Weaving strong chords.
