It’s not in me to hurt <br />A soul ever in this wide world, <br />Nay torture, create pain? <br />But through my life's <br />Silly steps, my ways, <br />Have I created pain in many? <br />These simple flowers lie before me, <br />Pure and true; <br />Lo! Now I have them ready <br />To garland You, My Soul, <br />I have never any harm, <br />I never meant to cause pain, <br />These flowers each one of them, <br />Speak the truth a plenty, <br />Trust you to heal, <br />The deepest of wounds <br />Cos’ when you are there, my Mother! <br />Why should there ever be a worry? <br />My Mother, each single flower, <br />Each single flower, oh! Each flower <br />A prayer, offered in silence to thee; <br />Wipe away the darkness, <br />Bring in the peace; <br />Every single flower, <br />Is my soul's chanting to thee!<br /><br />Suriya ...<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-simple-prayer-4/
