Notes About The Poem

A Masters Hand

This soul must yield to a Master's hand At path's end, with toil endured Destined worth, its truth assured As winters frost nips at the rose Shorn from time, as cold winds blow This soul must yield to a Master's hand With source of light that guides my way Beyond these shrouds before me lay A peace, nor I could understand This soul found hope with a Master's hand Such repose within this heart I felt With veneration, my will has knelt The warmth of spring doth fill the air As only one could answer prayer.
