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.
