All I Ask For

All I Ask For

I ask for strength to move forward. Grant me guidance to find the path of happiness and grace.

Don’t blind me to compassion so that I can find the ability in me to always forgive.

Help me find the tools to rebuild my heart from the dust so that I will one day to able to love and trust as I once did as a child.

Guide me to wisdom so that I may be able to recognize the fool inside me before others.

When I walk let it be light footed; when I look through these faded eyes clear them to gaze on the joy around me.

Let me rest when I lay for my soul is weary and my mind wonders to foolish acts.

Surround me with my dearest friends whom hold my calm water and shore that same water when it rages.

About the Creator

Deanne Jensen

I love to write. The one thing I don't like writing about is myself, ironic because that seems to be the one thing I do write about. I'm 53 and married for last time. I walk for stress release. I love Matchbox 20 the music fits me.
