Fragrant Love

In the depth of a valley
Your goodness retains Its sweetness on my lips
Even in stagnant waters
The fragrance that I've come to know guides me to a
Spring Fountain

In the frailty of my body
Your heart rushes life like a rapid river
Crushing dams and leveling levees
to the ground

------

In the pit of my greed
You offered me riches that far exceeded my lusts
In my vanity you blinded me before granting me new vision of my self:
the perfect bride of Christ

In my ego you pierced through the facade and revealed my true identity:
A humble Child

In my nothing you made something

In my lack you made worth

In my abandonment you adopted me
As your own
