HEAVENLY HONEY

Oh dearest Lord may I ever be
as busy as the honey bee,
spreading the pollen that keeps alive
all Your flowers whose nectar does provide,
the heavenly honey so lovingly sent
the supply of which will never be spent.

It’s the sweetener that will always heal
life’s bitterest trials when we make the appeal,
all we have to do, is take the first sip
pray that its goodness will ever stick,
to the acrid regions of heart, mind, and soul
keeping them sweet and forever whole.
