Poems

OMNIPRESENCE

Each day God's love for man unfolds—It meets my every need;Can I have less than yesterday?

Is it enough for me to seeMyself as perfect, whole, and free,And look with sympathetic glanceUpon my brother's circumstance?

TRANSFORMATION

Once a candle in the midnightOf my heart was briefly lit:Ere the tallow had burned lowDaylight had supplanted it.

LIGHT

Hazel A. Blackwell

As when through sullen storm clouds sunshine fallsRevealing realms beyond the tempest's night,Where shines the radiant splendor of the lightThat floods the heaven's illimitable halls,Or, in the early morn, a bird's voice callsTo herald by his song, serene and bright,The coming glory of the dawn, not quiteApparent yet above the garden walls,

WINDOWS OF HEAVEN

If it is infinite, how then controlBy human methods the supply of Soul?

THE CUP

Let us find in holy thoughtThe secret place,Where light of Truth reveals to usThe Father's grace,

ESTABLISHING OUR DAY

When we waken in the morningAnd establish well our day,We can feel Love's ever-presenceAs we listen, work, and pray.

Here in our heartsThe Way is found.
