Beautiful poet, creature of letters.
Your sweet life is full of grace.
From your holy soul, you write.
Your words give light to life.
Beautiful poet, I love your poems.
Now I cannot live without words.
From your soul, I drink water of peace.
Your words paint my life.

adapted to music in 2006 by Matthew Lanier, an American composer.
