Poems

WILDERNESS EXPERIENCE

From the March 1977 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I find myself in a desert,
my thoughts elemental—cleansed
as pure forms shaped by God's wind.
In this silence I have heard
His voice and I have
forgotten loneliness. The colors
of the desert reflect
my own discovered peace. I know
that I shall be sustained
as I kneel to drink Love's outflowings
like water and gather
the precious manna of this morning.
