Borrowing the Wisdom of St. Francis


A fatal choice;
On but a whim the world unmake,
Could I,
For this inquiry's sake:
"What would you change?"

 

To play God,
What single item would I move,
And risk
The jealous God's reproof?
I seek His Wisdom.

 

The choice is made.
His Will I do comply
And I
Decide what I should sanctify:
Myself!
