Released

By Deb R.

When I seek to refine
The thoughts in my mind;
When I unwind my thoughts
Of what your love brought;
When that love in my soul
In pain takes its toll;
I shall impart to you
The whole of myself.
You know what I've felt,
Now you will pursue
To throw off the beast
Whose pain does not cease.
When my whole self finds peace
To you I am released

Aria

By Deb R.

The requiem of the Earth has played so long,
The beat of hearts has swelled to a tattoo
While the world produced a keening song.
But I compose the words which see me through:
The lyrics to the sad and mournful cry
Which show that sorrow is simply a lie.

That’s Me

Unknown Author

The work in the house
    Tidy, pristine
    That's me
The job that I do
    Issue resolved
    That's me
The friends whom I love
    Care, support
    That's me
The strength for all this
    Ever present
    That's you Lord

Teach Me

Unknown Author

Lord
Teach me to pray
Teach me to love
Teach me to be like you.
On my own I cannot do the job you
    have called me to do.
With you all things are possible.
May I become less, may you become more.
Teach me to pray
Teach me to love
Teach me to be more like you.
    Amen.
