SLEEP IN A STORM

Life is a ground of bountiful earth,

Founded on the deep body of the sea,

And the well of peace, joy and mirth

Lies in the root of the mind and spirit.

If my time is as few as the hours of the day,

And precious like the blood that flows in me,

Then my precious gifts that comes from within

Shall grow, multiply and bless my simple way.

Pray diligently that your streams may flow.

Work diligently that your seeds may grow.

Be patient that your light may brightly glow

Over the dark that seeks to bring you low.
