At one with God

How one might pray to God.

Those prison walls

We can feel imprisoned in our thinking, whether or not we find ourselves behind actual walls. This poem shows how prayer can bring down the walls. 

Resolve

This American sonnet is inspired by page 514 of Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy.

Listen . . .

The Word is
speaking . . .
The Logos of eternity declares itself,
its power: 
It is Love—embracing the cosmos with
its dictation.
Where can we find true riches?  

Meekness and might

Mary Baker Eddy wrote, “Meekness is the armor of a Christian, his shield and his buckler” (Message to The Mother Church for 1902, p. 19). This poem celebrates the protective Christly power of meekness.
