to some i give dignity,
to some i give grieving.
to some i give prophecy,
to some i give doubt.
to some i give determination,
to some i give faith.
to some i give patience,
to some the gift of listening.
to some i give peace,
to some revolution.
to some i give healing,
to some i give suffering.
to some i give love,
to some i give loss.
to some i give eyes,
to some i give feet.
to all i give understanding,
though few choose to take it….
and remember, you chose your own gifts! ‘…
and i thought for awhile,
and then asked….
‘but what about me? ‘
god laughed…
‘to a few infidels i give poetry,
to sing to the weary! ‘
god, what was i thinking,
when i made that choice?
