Poem June 27, 1988 Issue

A new record

Jeannie J. Ferber

Earth's shadows (mortal patterns historied in fleeting records)
Stretch before, behind, around us as our own
Until their illusory attachment
Is severed
By the noon of divine light—
God's eternal perfection.

Shadowless being (identity found in this original light of Love)
Reveals the image where the heart
Has not two devotions
But forever one.
In this beginning light
Reborn, I am God's own.

Jeannie J. Ferber
