An Artist's Prayer

“An Artist's Prayer" By Rachel Heffington I've seen the Master Artist's brush In deer so quiet, dusky-shy, I've seen His charcoal pencil trace A tree against the evening sky. His watercolors have I glimpsed In fragile petals of a rose. A pastel masterpiece I view Each time a day is at its close. I've seen His sculpture in the way The waves conform the rippling sand, So Lord, please take this amatuer And guide my ever-blundering hand!
