a PRAYER,

Teach me, Father. how to go
Softly as the grasses grow.
Hush my soul to meet the shock
OF the wild world as a rock.
But my spirit. propt with power,
Make as simple as a flower.
Let the dry heart fill its cup.
Like a poppy looking up.
Let life lightly wear her crown.
Like the poppy looking down
When it's heart is filled with dew
And it's life begins anew.
Teach me, Father. how to be
Kind and patient as a tree.
Joyfully the crickets Groom
Under shady oak at noon.
Beetle, on his mission bent.
Tarries in that cooling tent.
Let me also cheer a spot,
Hidden field or garden grot-
Place where passing souls can rest
On the way and be their best.
