Poems

All in

From the May 2025 issue of The Christian Science Journal


When a tired child turns
Into their parent’s arms,
They turn completely.

All in

They bury their head deep,
Molding their shape
To the crook of the enfolding arms.

All in

They do not peek behind
In fear of danger.
They are safe in their parent’s embrace.

All in

So when I, too, am tired
Of “disappointments
And ceaseless woes,” 1

Let me bury my thought
Deep in the bosom of Love.
Let me turn completely

To Her comforting embrace,
And wake to discover
I’m where I’ve always been:

All in
