Concealment

Concealment

A Poem by Helen Crutchett


 Concealment


I’m just a slave intoxicated
With the call of love from the beloved
I pray for mercy and correction
Shelter from the 
Desert of my lost soul 
A lost  world is
Seeking divine light through curtains of
Concealment 

Wondering at the ebbing and flowing
Of the oceans
The mysteries of the worlds
And universal secrets
I continue in this weak human condition
Ever reaching towards my Creator
Who sustains my restless Soul
Protecting me from turbulent storms
Sailing the ark of my spiritual life
To be reborn as a tiny babe…

i especially like the last three lines...Sailing that ark, with all our weaknesses....and yet faith does make us much stronger than we can imagine.

Do the "curtains of concealment" represent the narrator's faith?
