725) Return

.

After idleness and dissolution

I finally lose interest in having a lack of virtue

and turn wholly to Him

Who in This Age

goes by the Glorious Name of Baha’u’llah

and find myself

thinking of little else

but His all-conquering power

His all-pervasive grace

trusting in His love

or rather hoping for it

in my unworthiness

to receive it.

And just the act of turning

seems to rejuvenate my soul and heart

and placate my troubled mind

and all is well,

and now my prayers are done,

a good night’s sleep beckons.
