Expect not!

Does not select anybody,
Does not reject anybody.

Always self-givingly projects itself.

The possessor of peace.

“My child,

To say a prayer for world-peace?”

In infinite measure
When my life becomes
The fragrance
Of my gratitude-heart.

In abundant measure
When I take my mind
To fly with me
In my simplicity, sincerity,
Humility and purity-plane
In the Sky of God’s Compassion,
Protection and Satisfaction
