A blackbee came
buzzing
in my mind,
and then,
where did it go?
My Lord came
in my house
to regale my heart.
Why didn't He remain seated there?
Morning and evening
on my way to the pond
I always look for Him.
He has made me His own.
In all my duties,
in the house,
on the farm,
I think of Him
and Him alone.
He has taken my everything.
Now I will sit
to meditate
to bring Him within my life,
whether He graces me to stay or no.
Now I will tell Him
my tales of woe,
whether He bothers to listen or not.
