Ash Wednesday
Ask to know truth as dust funds dust,
Sense a deep feel of joy that binds;
Heed love's sure proof in poise you trust.
Watch how touch heals true face you find,
Etch a pure zest that frames bold quest,
Dream of good times that outlast bad;
Note how time tests that primal fest,
Endow fond chimes when things go mad;
Stillness in poise can counter pain,
Deep dazzle dear can make you blind;
Attest clear choice to anchor gain,
Yes sounds most clear when heart knows mind;
Trust in the way love brings new light,
Hurl warm feelings in a deep vein;
Opt to obey that calm insight,
Urge bold living in style laid plain;
Great is the trip on journey road,
Heap happy here where fashion greets;
Taste sparkles grip as soul bears loads,
Swift mellow cheer new flavours meet.
