Oh Love! Please send a candle, For my heart Is filled With dark intense. Its ways and paths Are strewn With stones of greed And selfishness Over which I stumble, crying out In aching agony. I need your love To light my path, To guide me Through the maze Of thoughtlessness I daily walk. I need your hand, Warm and tender In my own, To lead me From despair To joy, flowing Deep and wide From heaven To the ocean of my soul. 4/27/76
