Poem May 14, 1977 Issue

A Message to God

Dan Marion Gibson

Father-Mother God,
Your teaching is so clear—
that I am made like You
and not as I appear.

I am not mortal—
this I plainly see.

Each bird, each tree, flower, and bee,
Is really immortal too
Because everything in Your kingdom
is spiritual, like You.

Dan Marion Gibson
(written at age 10)
