Poems

Building project

From the April 1989 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Sand,
rock ground to dust,
eager to shift,
to blow with the wind,
conforms under pressure
and flows every way.
Yet the furnace
of fervent desire
to be and do good
can melt it to rock again,
the more majestic formation
that resists fragmentation,
providing foundation
for Christ's church,
the solid conviction
to build upon.
