MY PRAYER by CHARLOTTE LOUISE BERTLESEN

First Line: MAY IT EVER BE SAID OF THE ONE THAT WAS I
Last Line: SHE GALLANTLY REACHED FOR HER STAR.
Subject(s): PRAYER; RELIGION; SPIRITUALITY; THEOLOGY;
May it ever be said of the one that was I,
When my spirit flings off every bar:
Through bafflement, losses, futilities—all—
She gallantly reached for her star.
