A CALL TO PRAYER, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: From the minaret the moslem
Last Line: "god is love and god is good."
Subject(s): Babies; Prayer; Infants


From the minaret the Moslem
Bids men pray. "Let all work wait."
North, south, east and west he calls them,
"God is one and God is great."

Far below a woman blesses
God in new-found motherhood,
Singing to the babe she presses,
"God is love and God is good."
