S.A.M.
Send all Thy servants forth
for Christian care
And there she stands a
vibrant, blushing rose
Respecting all humanity's
despair
And minding subjects she can
ne'er disclose.
I feel so honored just to hear
her voice
Amidst my ancient, tired,
weary day.
My education thus is but her
choice
Akin to the best William
Shakespeare play.
I ken me humbled by her
presence here
Sustaining feelings that I
dare not own.
Emotions, timeless, which I
sorely fear
Leak her some deep, dark
secrets yet unblown.
Let not my failings stoop to
bring her down,
Eternal Spirit, she builds Thy
renown.
