AN UNTITLED POEM FROM A VISITING POET

AN UNTITLED POEM

BY

ELAINE ROQUFMORE

From dust to dust

   on earth to live

Yet greater purpose

   He would give

One day He heard

    the sinner’s cry

And changed the worm

         to butterfly

How great Thou art
 Who came to me
 A lowly creature

    Thou set free

With open eyes

   Beyond to see

   I lift my voice

In praise to Thee
