Poems

THE LESSON

From the July 1945 issue of The Christian Science Journal


This Quarterly holds notes in latent state
Like organ score, and like two keyboards spanned,
The Bible and our Leader's textbook wait
For quick response of passage-finding hand
To wake from printed page the answering
Of phrase with phrase, reciprocally clear,
When parallel significances sing
For comprehension's quietness to hear.

These metaphors reach deeper, for each part
Of this revealed correlative array,
Now spread in thought, presents a further chart
Of urgent notes for selfless skill to play
On demonstration's keys, till, tone by tone,
With primal concord God enfolds His own.
