Madonna Of All Stillness, Poem by Mary Angela Douglas
Madonna Of All Stillness,
Madonna of all stillness.
Madonna of intransigent peace-
all the roads of light will
surely
meet in you.
there is no circumference of tears, of
banished snows, of poetry
in flight-
there is no end to searching for
another
since no altar on earth is free
from mothlike devotion:
guard the candle of my soul-
