Poems

As offering

From the August 1986 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Lift up
your life
as loving
sacrifice

held like
a cup
in your
hands

and that
one purpose,
poised and
deliberate,

shall by
His merits
sustain you,
until

nothing
remains
but the pure
distillation

of all you
would most
willingly see
accomplished,

when,
all hurts
healed and
all hardness

at last
annealed,
you become
your offering

—the finally
valid fulfillment
of the heart's
one absolute

pledge.
