Bicentenary Poems and Prose

Sheltering Support: To The Bab

Sheltering Support:
To The Bab

In the sheltering support
of God's ancient covenant
humanity finds shelter
in this age of darkness
when the battalions
of good and evil
confront each other.

The sheltering support
of God's covenant
was renewed
when the Bab
proclaimed His mission
and announced the coming
of Him Whom God Will Make Manifest.

Poet's Note: ▼
