Lowly

May I tie your shoe or wash your feet?

May I serve you in some way?

May I please divulge the light

on any given day?

Mine is not the strange, confused.

Mine is not the moneyed. 

Mine is just the often used

two hands and heart that's sunny. 

I believe in you, you see,

in all that you can do.

I believe in all the things

that goodness brings us to.

Humbly now I bow my head

beseeching of the world

know the kindness of a heart,

the shyness of a girl.

Know the heart of servant's service

humble though it be

will rule the world and give to you

God's great love and mercy.

Another very beautiful poem Botania. Pure love without any or maybe no influences.

Wanted to capture the beauty of Christian faith, the gentleness, the love of God who loves us all.
