In Complete Devotion Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

I don't pride myself,
On being the receiver...
Of the gift of wisdom.
That would be to me,
The act of one self centered.

I pride myself,
With the relationship obtained...
In complete devotion,
To 'that' which has granted me...
An ability to think and comprehend.

And...
As an added bonus,
Patience to allow myself to evolve...
Without knowing what to expect next,
Has been my most treasured blessing...Yet!
