A waiting place

Auriel Wyndham Livezey

“The ‘secret place,’ whereof David sang, is unquestionably man’s spiritual state in God’s own image and likeness, even the inner sanctuary of divine Science, in which mortals do not enter without a struggle or sharp experience, and in which they put off the human for the divine.”

—Mary Baker Eddy, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, and Miscellany, p. 244

There’s a waiting place I used to know,
where seeds of sorrow I did sow.
Watching our paths diverge and part,
I waited for others’ change of heart.
