Grace and Solitude

Grace how sweet you are in my time of need,                                                                 I prayed I even wanted to plead.                                                                                Will I need to bleed,                                                                                                please have pity on me I decreed.                                                                               My solitude feels like a beach topped with seaweed,                                                      I am sitting in the sun but cannot succeed.                                                                   All alone my cares do need,                                                                                        you must have trust in deed.                                                                                            I need to get out of this with speed,                                                                               all I want to do is sit here and read.                                                                         Grace I hope you have not fled,                                                                                       I need you more than white bread.                                                                           Thank you for the hope and seed,                                                                                   I now feel I can proceed.
