Surrender

Healing heart and spirit

The salve of surrender

Warmth enveloping me

Surrounding me

Like a blanket fresh from the drier

On a cold crisp day

Every muscle relaxes

As I slump into restful slumber

Yet remain awake 

To relish the feeling of completeness

My broken heart, 

Mended with Love

Coming from Surrender

And Acceptance

Losing something I cherished

Gave me a gift of compassion

And understanding

When what was lost

Is returned

Then, and only then, can I see what

It is really worth

My perspective has changed

I no longer see my role in one dimension

I see how my prayers were answered

And God did for me what I could not do for myself
