Poems

Letting You Go

From the January 1964 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I let you go,
not far away,
but to the closest place I know:
God's omnipresent care.

I pray for more
humility.
Oh, holy joy that sees you there,
complete, secure, and free!

And as I pray,
I am with you
where hearts and minds and words obey
the patient, tender, true.
