Out Of My Life! The Meager And The Sour Poem by Mary Angela Douglas

out of my life! the meager and the sour.

the snail shadow feeding on the hour

the stinging insect cloud the gloomy dower.


I have seen the rainbow cast in shade.

I have felt the beautiful unmade.

shattering dissolve the sunset ray


all small things of evil pass this way.

this is the day the Lord sincerely made

and all for joy


you can just all set sail and ship ahoy

far far from here.

this blue and grassy starry sphere.
