A Sort of Gift

I'm offering my love to You
Like a flower, like a little gift
Cupped in my hands, I send it toward heaven
To find the throneroom where they say
You accept such humble gifts as these.
All of my devotion lies in this tiny throbbing prayer
Because if I give my heart away
How can I be anything anymore?
Oh, make me what I cannot be*
What I have never been before.


(February 2007)

*From a prayer a Pastor prayed in India.
