Always Answered

This body is housing a soul

Which is of no use strong and healthy

If not put to use through loving seva

Mindless of being poor or wealthy.

This mind is housing an intellect

Which is of no use sharp and awake

If not put to us through surrendering it

All doings beyond my wonder yet in your grasp.

This soul is housing a consciousness

Which is of no use intuitive and vast

If not put to use through prayerful rememberance

In gratitude always may it bask.

This human is housing a being

Which is of no use without you Master

If not put to use as a divine instrument

May this be my only wish now and not later.
