Learning – a poem from Mike Bassano

 

Dear Friend,

We hope and pray for better times to come with an end to this pandemic as well as striving for peace in all parts of our world especially for us here in South Sudan. There is still sporadic violence throughout the country here in our state of Upper Nile but at the moment things are calm.

Enclosed is a poem that reflects hope for better times to come in our lives entitled: “Learning”.

 

Learning

 

Through furnace of humiliation

purifying fountain creating

enlightening clear path

greater union with You

 

Seeing with your eyes

loving with you heart

becoming like You

on life’s journey

 

Situations unfolding

causing concern

trusting Your guidance

renewing earth’s course

 

Believing in possibilities

inevitable changes

consummate hope

overcoming negativity

 

Sunrise initiating

enchanting moment

connecting with nature

revitalizing energy

 

Patiently waiting

good things forthcoming

walking confidently

narrating stories

 

Learning from everything

gaining inner wisdom

authentically becoming

integrally living.

 

(Fr. Mike Bassano, mm)
