Midas

Someone prayed my way
My days are full of ease
Wife and kids laugh and play,
Unwanted dreariness ceased.

The Pastor said 'Hello' to me,
an old friend hugged my neck,
Someone called me handsome,
My kids kept me awake.

Whatever was the part
... of my heart
that made me weary
... is gone, clearly,

Someone asked for my recovery
My days are filled with grace
'tis nice someone thoughtfully
has lent prayer my way.
