A book of poetry is a prayer book
Your Daily Office of verses and lines
Attended prayerfully if possible
But, yes, attended in any event
Wavell’s Flowers for your next deployment
Young Yevtushenko for the bus commute
Or a little volume of Pushkin pushed
Into a pocket past your pocketknife
Beginning with Matins, and all through your day
Make the blessings of poetry part of your Way
Your Daily Office of verses and lines
Attended prayerfully if possible
But, yes, attended in any event
Wavell’s Flowers for your next deployment
Young Yevtushenko for the bus commute
Or a little volume of Pushkin pushed
Into a pocket past your pocketknife
Beginning with Matins, and all through your day
Make the blessings of poetry part of your Way
