A Solitude of Praise
Waves and winds comfort me
As I toss in fitful dreams.
The universe covers my head,
Sand gives my bones a humble bed
Oh, how much I'll fill this spot,
With all the memories I've got!
And tell this place how much I care,
Of loved ones, whose souls I've shared.
While seeking life in all its scope,
Their why I'll hold fast to hope.
A world for food, one for delight,
Morning, noon and in the night.
Each day when I say my prayers,
I'll thank God who truly cares.
Then count my blessing on earth,
A task too easily I've shirked.
