that shakes my busy soul
that worms its way through my brain
that stirs me to be kind.
I need a poem
that fills this page with verse
that touches hearts with peace
that shares a love that binds.
We need a poem
that sets our spirit free
that wraps our space with good
that aligns with God each face.
We have a poem
that baby Jesus born
that day when God ordained
that baptized us in grace.
