Thought
What activity in foreign lands make bold?
Beloved put in market place?
Where smelling fish are bought and sold
Along with Holy name and face?
Should we auction our Ideal away
Offered to the highest bid?
Put dearest one on cheap display?
Packaged with a box and lid?
The answer rings out crystal clear
Keep precious one in sacred heart
His holy presence will appear
In crafted phrases truth impart
No cult of personality made
No competing flags are raised
No saviour misunderstood
Message spread in neighbourhood
Prayer
Lord make me thy instrument of love that never imposes but always adapts. May Thy will be done. Grant that I may take the path of least resistance and the non-competitive gap so that thy glory shines without the obstacle of my small ego.
