Lilies in a stained glass window
are beautiful,
so are saints.
The light shines through them
and they glow.
They have about them a serene perfection
like eternity's.
Lord, I don't want to be a flower in a
stained glass window,
or even a saint,
Lord let my flowering be
more like a daisy's
or even a dandelion 's
growing in a dusty field,
but growing...
