Analysis of Gabriel Calls
My heart belongs to providence,
I walk the final mile
My footsteps bought and paid for,
I clear the last denial
My faith is bold and steadfast,
new rain begins to fall
Through the fog a trumpet’s blowing,
the gate now open,
—Gabriel calls
(Villanova Pennsylvania: February, 2016)
