Poems

Who am I? Why am I here?

From the August 1997 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Who am I? you ponder.
You are the child of God.
Why am I here? you wonder.
To represent truly your Father-Mother God.

"Who?" a raindrop doesn't ask;
It just carries moisture to a world thirsting.
To carry God's message is no great task
When we know it provides for humanity's nurturing.

"Why?" the wind doesn't ask;
It just forces cloud to yield to light of sun.
To dispel a man's error is no real task
When through Christ he learns that God and he are one.
