SAGRADO FAMILIA

It took Antoni Gaudi to see
that if a tree can be a cathedral
a cathedral can also be a tree

That it still stands is proof
that the branches from its trunks
can hold the canopy of roof

It is trite and true to say
that Gaudi built poetry

and I’d love to build a poem
where one could come and sit

as softly on a hardwood pew
in a place so radiant lit
