To Learn Poem by sreelekha premjit

Dearest, hold my hand
and thus guide
as me as I traverese
the turbulent paths of life

teach me humility
that I may humbly accept
my wrongs and frownless
I be when I am corrected

teach me to
stretch my hand to help
those around
knowing well that its you who made me so

teach me to trust
what I may at first mistrust
for good is often hidden
and the best is often late

teach me to
be your trusted child
willingly following ur bid
so that I may rest in peace.
