 SILENCi 'Empty-sir u£is Lights dim Silent night sounds Who sleeps — bird; People? Where is I almost fainted to hear you say softly “Hello' again only to again retreat quickly within yourself leaving me with a notebook full of poems written for you but never read. BELIEF When I was a child. I thought as a child . . . I am a child ... A Child of God. His Love and Spirit sustain me through all my trials and troubles. . . When I am afraid —He is there. . . When I am alone — He is there. . . When I cry He lays His Hand on me and all my tears are gone . . . If I falter the path . . . He leads me on . . . Amen — Evelyn R. Brown 108
