Grant me Ashes
God, as I understand you
grant me the valor to see truth
not what I fear,
want to see, or want it to be.
An eye for reality
and another for day dreaming
a mouth to speak truth but not
push it on others.
A mind to remember my messy tracks,
mistakes and faults,
what I need to accept or change
but please
don't bother me too much because
it's my time
to kick back, breakout and do
my thing.
Compassion to accept
that reality can be hard or healing
and good or rough at times,
can build esteem with mistakes
despite screams and frowns,
from others.
Help me live this day not counting
blessings nor messes
not taking everyone’s inventory
and standing up for myself and others
even when on my butt.
