WHAT DUST SHOOK OFF

Thinking of sheep, hearing their plaintive bleat,How many shepherds, though they turned asideTo see some scene, to muse on origins,Then slipped back in the track, led sheep again,And were not troubled by that different thing,Unready for mere human vision-change?

Oh, how she wanted to give!The dollar bill,The eggs,I hold them in my hand.

Swathed in time'swinding-sheet, howcan Lazarus comealive again nowfor us in this room,this one hourdissolved, also, soon?

RIGHT PRAYER

I prayed for oneimportunately,in humble, deep sincerity,but no light shone.

There is no time "ago," an hour,A day, a year.

As wild geese wedge aloft in arrowed flight,Thy mental compass charts their course aright—The same All-power that spins our rolling sphereAnd governs movement with precision here.
