Take my hand, Mother
away from the boiling
black pot.Cool me
gently in a gentle spring.
Hold me hard, Mother, I
suspended like a pendulum
over thorny shrubs.
And if i were to fall, Mother
let me fall
on the soft foam of your belly.
Feed me love -
food of heart and soul.
I drink from Your river
quench my thirst of thunder
In the spring
Of your wrinkle!
I desire to busk
in the sun of Your palms
listening to Your voice.
I listen to your song, too
praising work
of loyal children,
honest to goodness.
And your voice
Elicits the light of day.
So i will do my best
to busk in your aura
pass your motherly word
to my world
print words of love
on palms of mankind.
Milton.. this is very beautiful..
it cetainly is a prayer
and may God bring each among us peace
Hi. Don't you mean bask in your aura, not busk? Busking is what street musicians do.
