Prayer To Surrender

a poem

I pray to you great beyond

empower me to sing this song

so very deep into my soul

to help me let go of control

a desperate little part of me

always seems to beg and plead

attempting to manipulate

for petty things which barely sate

my sad hunger to fill a space

that love for self is meant grace

I pray that I at once release

my need for all these luxuries

to be happy right in place

knowing my worth is innate

knowing all will come in time

abundance flowing like fine wine

when I release, but let hope live

accepting what great mother gives
