More Or Less


Would you question the wisdom

Of that understanding Heart

That allows you of Heaven

Just the smallest part?

Should He in “misguided love”

Let you taste the whole?

‘Twould only be a feeble fight

To obtain an empty goal.

So question not the Love

Nor cry “O, hardened heart”

With oh so much to give

Why such a little part?

“(How like a child you complain -

But wisdom could readily see

If here the ‘more’ you obtain,

The ‘less’ you’ll have with Me!)”




All poems in this web-based eBook have been transcribed and edited from author's handwritten journals compiled between 1963 through 1969.
