Florence Helen Sirb, 1980

This poem was published in the St. Nina Quarterly, Volume 3, No. 3.

Your house may be a simple hut,

Or a mansion wherein you roam,

A small room in a tenement,

Or a palace with a dome.

You may have spacious gardens,

Or crowd in a honeycomb,

When you invite God to live there,

You may truly call it home.

**Florence Sirb served as the secretary of the Romanian Orthodox Episcopate of America (OCA) for many years. This poem was submitted by Archbishop Nathaniel after her passing.
