Poems

HINT FROM A SNAIL

From the January 1977 issue of The Christian Science Journal


When foot
falls short
of spoken
thought,
do not,
for charity,
cry
"Pharisee!"

Thought,
leading foot,
finds star
and then
the
slow
foot

comes
where
longings
are.

God shines on thought
that foot
may know
the way
to go.
