BAPTISM PSALM (8-6-8-6)
The easy yoke – the burden light
Consists in His good name –
The answer to our earnest quest
Will always be the same.
No esoteric school of thought –
Sophisticated tome –
Can euphemize the substance of
The call that leads us Home.
Sincerity – the gentle mark –
Simplicity – the sign –
A sermo humilis in style
Means subtle discipline.
