Of small and cumulative acts
Poem by Dana Littlepage Smith
Come gentle Shaper, caress
my acts into a quieter fire.
I am tired. I have forgotten the music
of silent deeds.
Sweep me into the threshing floor
where corn and chaff are one
until the gold begins to light
the discerning into the willing stream.
