Poems

To feel good!

From the December 1978 issue of The Christian Science Journal


I feel good!

But if when I feel good
I don't feel You—
surging, urgent, transcendent Spirit —
then it's not good.

If when I feel good
don't merely feel good but feel You —
You

piercing hazy daydreams,
that I may think straight and true

wiping weepy eyes,
that I may see to heal

stirring slow limbs,
moving me to act with You, with Love,
to do some good for You,

then, and only then,
feeling good
is fully good.
