Poems

Missile on target*

From the October 2000 issue of The Christian Science Journal


Sword and spear and shield
will not do it.
Sharp surfaces of will and hate
cannot deliver up the giant.
But one smooth stone of truth
cast in the name of God,
good's almightiness,
is missile on target.
The truth that evil is unreal
is one smooth stone.

*See I Sam. 17:45, 49.
