Unmerited Favor
Unmerited favor falls down like rain--
gracefully available
when I choose to receive it.
I stand beneath in
awe and wonder,
face upturned
to experience that
which can never be earned.
It may be true that
I've done wrong, but
suddenly I realize
I am not wrong.
I am perfect in
my own imperfection.
Now: I choose to be
tethered to unconditional love
rather than the long trail of
mistakes I've made along
the path of my life.
