March 18th 2007

Give me peace.
Peace of mind,
Another piece of my puzzle
and the strength to find its place.

Give me calm.
Silent oratories of comfort.
An umbrella of safety in a constant storm
and the endurance to hold it up.

Give me love.
A large hug for a squished soul.
The antidote for all things crushing
And the courage to trust the cure.

I will give you a woman
At peace with her surroundings.
A woman who is tranquil and unruffled.
a woman who is cherished and fulfilled.

It made me think of this Christmas hymn:

"What can I give Him, poor as I am?
If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb;
If I were a Wise Man, I would do my part;
Yet what I can I give Him?
Give my heart."
~Christina Rossetti, "In the Bleak Midwinter"
