Poems

One lost sheep

From the November 1988 issue of The Christian Science Journal


How could this be
with Love's ever-presence
filling all space—
could it leave
one of its own
outside
beyond the reach
of shepherding protection
where it must ever
abide?
Could Love see anything
but its own reflection?
Guileless, obedient,
a love of following,
feels itself
forever safe
within this Love's affection.
