SUITABLY ATTIRED:


Lord attire me suitably, to face the coming world,

Curl around my soul, flower´s petal softly en-furled,

Don´t dress me in silks & satins, nor in threads of gold,

I am not interested in velvets, of colours so very bold.

 

Wrap & wreathe me, in the sunniest of brightest smiles,

Shoe me in slippered steps, to walk for many light miles,

Garb me in giggles & laughter & the sweetest of life´s joy,

Away with all spent riches, of this world´s cruel sad ploy.

 

Mantle me in gossamer, of the spider´s dew spun webs,

Adorn me with rosy birdsong, from nightingale’s wise nebs,

Enfold me in fielded grasses, by gold sun´s fingers dried,

Lord, ensure that going to heaven, I´m suitably so attired.
