Sainted LadiesA Poem by Duncan BrownUpon dawning quiet dreams St Therese
speaks to thee: “Wrapped
in the Lamb’s woolly robes, flowers
dressed from warrior worlds rest
asound the triple heavens, as iron
enemies cower in hell.” St
Therese speaks to thee.
Upon
sleepy thymey dreams St Lucy
speaks to thee: “Neath
nights waxen light, jewelled
hands fashion the tears of a
sweet and terrible vengeance to
brooch a cruel mans eyes.” St Lucy
speaks to thee.
Upon
waking sleeping and dreaming St Mary
speaks to thee: “Soldier,
priest and scientist, you’d
best beware your past. This
last is in the future. Now
spells like stones are cast.” © 2016 Duncan BrownAuthor's Note
