Theme : Prayer
Reason to Live

Like the first raindrop on the parched soil,
Like a new leaf bursting forth from a scorched trunk of a tree,
Like a kind word to the dreary heart,
Like a smile that is long awaited,

Like a toddler's first steps,
Like a new concept becoming part of a child's intellect
Like the arrival of light at the end of a tunnel
Like sunrise after a toilsome night,

God, let your kindness dawn upon me
And let me embellish this moment
With the trail of my footsteps on your canvas of time
That leaves an ever-new pattern always

Let your kindness dawn upon me
And let me see you in the midst of darkness
Let your kindness dawn upon me
And let me find a reason to live.
