CLARITY
by Carmen C. DiCello Listening around for celestial voice. The church seems a spiritual parody. Where, O my Lord, can I nestle with truth? I’m searching each day for some Clarity. __________________________________ One system says, “Hear our words, watch our lives.” (But) Authentic is just such a rarity. Where, Strange Divine, can I gaze at what’s real? I’m striving to find some true Clarity. __________________________________ Insiders bless themselves, walking away. All that they do is just stare at me. Why, Living Way, does this satisfy them? Just looking for genuine Clarity. __________________________________ Beam of hope comes; it shines through my soul. It flows from the One they call Charity. Staring at him, though the edges aren’t smooth. At least, I can sense there is Clarity. __________________________________ Journey, we do, and the mystery remains. With questions, not answers, I bow the knee. But, coming’s a day when our eyes see complete. The cloud coming One will give Clarity. __________________________________ Refrain – Seeing some things, there’s more I don’t know. Show me the path, what to think, where to go. Carmen C. DiCello
