This Is No Metaphor Poem by Mary Angela Douglas
This Is No Metaphor
What word about You can compare
With the word refuge
God is our refuge and our strength, the golden book says
A very present help in trouble
Present…I think
Remembering when I was called to roll
In school and how I dreaded to be
Present…help
Or to dwell under the shadow of the Almighty
Under even one wing
The most consoling thing
This is no metaphor
This is how we live.
