Poems

A question

From the May 1991 issue of The Christian Science Journal


"I will arise and go to my father,"
said the prodigal long ago. Could I
but do the same,

To stand before Almighty God, call
Him Father, and ask to be His hired
servant,

Who, me?

Besides, does He have a robe my size
and a ring to fit my finger?

Would He see me afar off and run
to greet this other wandering son?

I will arise and go to my Father, I
have all to gain, naught to lose.

Who, me?

Yes, me

and you too.
