Poems

Delayed healing

Jericho looms athwart my rocky track:Its brooding towers forbid the fertile land,And I must bootless compass its stark wallsFor faithful days without a sign of crackTo show obedience is strength.

White temple

Enter in, peace is here.

A heart in prayer

Sometimes, a heart in prayerIs like a lost sea bird,Weary, far from any shore,That rests upon a tossing sea.

In this moment, always

God cares for my children,and me;in this moment, always,steady in His love, He keeps them,and me,poised, peaceful, free.

During a trial

Dear God, I hold Thy handand will not let it go.

Be Columbus! 

You, homeless, lost, face to facewith lust, disgust, despair, in the city streets;you, young girl, hoping, believingin what is truest and timeless about you—purity, dignity, love—you, innocent!

Now hear this

"I made you," God says.

Love's ever-presence

There is a presence walks with usOn every pathless way,A light outshining midday sunHowever dark the day.

Feeling Truth

Holy Father-Mother, God,Man is ever Your holy child.
