Beautiful Disaster, Life Poem by Mary Angela Douglas

Beautiful disaster, life
Still we are fortunate to be
Where we may have never been
If not for Thee, beautiful disaster,
Catastrophe
Bridge falling out of the sky
Still you will catch us up,
By the remaining hem of our
Never abandoning angels
Oh Interpreter most Vast
With all your never ending storied stars
Without a luminous, Word
But what we dream, however faintly inside
From your slightest imprint
Saving us past the floods And held:
cloud high above
the rainbowed, receding waters.
