Mary Helen, Soul of Light

What star aloft could represent her soul

That brighter shines than heaven's galaxies,

Whose orbit trails the Mother's diamond light

In joyous wake upon God's timeless seas.

What planet, moon or nebula would turn

From her brightening smile embracing time and space,

Her self of calm and poise of settled bliss,

Or dare refute those burning orbs of grace

That look on life with heaven's tenderness,

And symbolize the spirit's dateless quest.

In her the truth of womanhood affirmed,

Beloved one, blessed among the blest.
