Poems

Man—embodiment of spirituality

From the June 1997 issue of The Christian Science Journal


God is by holy names defined:
Spirit, Life, Truth, Love,
Soul, Principle, Mind.

You are revealed in Spirit's plan
As perfect reflection;
God's idea, man.

Divine Mind provides each true thought.
Pulpy stuff called
Brain does not.

Strong rhythmic surge Life must impart,
Not the organ
Called a heart.

Clear senses of Soul crystallize
To perceive reality—
Not ears and eyes.

You are God's child. Spiritual, content,
perfect
beloved embodiment.
