Poems

Eloquence of us

From the January 1978 issue of The Christian Science Journal


The eloquence of Word makes each
Variform, so fitting, neat:
With loving eye it sees
It speaks with tongue
It writes by hand
It runs on feet
With action-ease
To please concordant Mind
As fully activated man.

The fountainhead of function
Has, it seems to me,
But one vocabulary: all and each;
So that which bubbles in us all
(with no account of clock)
Goes out as messenger with purpose
All programmed from the heart,
Darting in travel-time of Soul
To praise another.

By Spirit led we come
Equipped with all as each:
With loving eye to see
Tongue to speak
Hand to write
To speed, our feet,
Each specified, expanded,
Thought embodied from above.
Each and all the eloquence of Love.

(We are, you know!)
