Leaves swept away by the wind

Leaves swept away by the wind
Only withered leaves that cannot stand the wind
For the sinner cannot be told
How does the burden fall

And yet how evergreen is the righteous
who does not stray into the wilderness
of unrepentant and blasphemous talk
Who keeps the words, jots and tittles of his
speech sacred
As a lioness who guards her cubs.
Who can buy and give at a glance
towards the Holy One
Who fears the Lawful and man in white
For the righteous are abiding in Love and
fear of the Lord.
