May i, may i …
Sunday, September 17th, 2006May i be the fertile land in places of dire famine …
May i be the gushing new wells in times of drought …
May i thereby be the food and drinks for the impoverished …
.
May i be the fuel for the lamp in the darkest places …
May i be the rainbow after the fiercest storms …
May i thereby be the hope in the desolate …
.
May i be the bud of mercy in the hearts of stone …
May i be the peace that binds the warring, the discord …
May i thereby be the love that binds all …
.
May i be the oceans that holds all sea creatures …
May i be the water that sustains all life …
May i thereby be the great earth that houses the myriad of creatures …
.
May i be the inspiration in the readers of this poem …
May i be the seed of kindness in them …
May i thereby be the compassion all their kindness can spring forth …
