Arkway
Humanity needs secular people with a spirit of prayer.
While Our Lady spoke about Carmel [restoring 3rd Order]
the Lord interrupted: ‘My Mother is Noah’s Ark’
—Elizabeth Kindelmann
this flood it's quite easy to see
medical mayhem (self and family)
eyes scan for the Arkway Her face
sense grace in paintbrush, arm-sway, song–-
place where it dawns: this Ark it does indeed float
upon crashing wave. Heartshift sought
dear Mother:
Autoturn, to
You
