Just outside my wisdom
are words that would answer everything.

Faith is the patient seamstress
who mends our torn belief,
who sews the hem of childhood trust
and clips the thread of grief.

A cup of sun…
a daisy…
a thimbleful of snow…
a leaf turned red from frost’s first touch…
this much of God I know.

I have bravery to spend on pain
I have faith to wall up fear
I have courage to fight danger when it comes
But there is no defence against loneliness.
