FOLD YOUR PALE HANDS, by KATHLEEN CLOSE Last Line: Light your clear stars. Subject(s): Hands; Nuns; Prayer | ||||||||
FOLD your pale hands, O night, Pure nun who comes to pray For the departing day Fold your pale hands. Tell o'er your beads Dewdrops that where you pass Cluster upon the grass, Tell o'er your beads. Light your clear stars, Tapers whose holy fire Burns with a soul's desire Light your clear stars. | Other Poems of Interest...PRAYER BEFORE BED by ANDREW HUDGINS UNHOLY SONNET 11 by MARK JARMAN LISTEN, LORD: A PRAYER by JAMES WELDON JOHNSON A PRAYER FOR THE FUTURE by GEORGE BARLOW (1847-1913) DIFFERENT WAYS TO PRAY by NAOMI SHIHAB NYE PRAYER DURING A TIME MY SON IS HAVING SEIZURES by SHARON OLDS WE WHO PRAYED AND WEPT by WENDELL BERRY |
