Master use these hands at least once
To heal a broken spirit
Use this ready smile as well
To cheer a heavy heart
Use these feet to aid and abet
One who’s mired in hopelessness
And use these eyes to lead a blind
Neighbor down a path of light.
Master use these ears as you wish
We are many who do not listen
Use this heart in order to offer
Solace when and wherever it can
Teach this tongue to utter mainly
Words that mend, words that soothe
Force this mind to seek truth and beauty,
To spread them both consistently.
This poem reminds me of the Prayer of St Francis:
"Lord, make me an instrument of thy peace..."
Love & Light always and in all ways,
Joseph*
