Moroni’s Footsteps
August 1997


“Moroni’s Footsteps,” New Era, Aug. 1997, 26

Moroni’s Footsteps

by A. Jonathan Vance

In a forest swept silent

By the arm of judgment,

Snow falls like tears

For a destroyed nation.

Bold, but alone,

A man who knows his mission

Walks along,

Preparing to bury the truth,

And let the silence

Pass over the earth,

Until it is broken

By a voice from the dust.
