Today I am Loved.
by M.M. Lewis, October 2004

Today I am Loved
No outside affirmation required;
I sing within myself of the divine,
of me—
Grey cloud-filled sky is mine
Its beauty a weekday-everyday-anyday gift from Father
Snow-capped mountains and drops of rain, gusts of wind are mine
Anything
everything
all for me
and I accept it.
I accept the wordless song
telling me that
today I am Loved.
