Hush now
and just be still
know that,
as written in The Book,
all things work together
for our good.
Hush now
yours is such a great life
there's no need
for you to live in that
dismal and hollowed place
and comparing yourself to others.
Hush now
you have been saved
by Someone greater
from the scars and ugly rigor
of old clots
such revival is a blessing.
Hush now
gather yourself
wear your prettiest smile
just like the good 'ol times
show them how well
you were raised by your folks.
Hush now
remind yourself
how many times this man
have chosen you
over so many things, people
and sometimes himself.
Hush now
you are such a beauty
what with that heart
and the values
passed on to you.
Yes, dear
you are indeed beautiful.
Hush now
don't tumble
remember how hard
you fought
to win those battles
you have chosen to fight.
Hush now
you have all the reasons
why not to frown
you have a life
others would wish for themselves.
Love, you are that blessed!
