“She said over and over again in her mind–God, please make Mother be all right, dear God, please make my mother be all right–until the words stopped making sense and got all jumbled, and she found herself saying–Mother, please make my God be all right.–”
- The Small Rain, Madeleine L’Engle
Excellent quote.
Her book of poetry, ‘The Ordering of Love’ came the other day from Amazon. I am very happy.
