Does Mind cease being Mind for these few years?
Can joy and gladness terminate in tears?
Or youthful trust be goaded to rebel?
If any son or daughter seems to be
Repudiating Love's immediacy,
Let Truth's resplendent shining break the spell.
Oh, let me answer through the darkest night,
With certain faith, as did the Shunammite,
"Yes, it is well, dear Father, it is well."
