Hold tight to the hand
that reaches to you.
Study and revere it
for these hands are few.
Reach out with your hand
strengthened now by friend’s light.
Allow helpless others’
to grab yours with all might.
They often fail,
ask where to grasp.
Despite that they
in prayer do clasp.
He says, “Be still
-your pen won’t swerve
put it down now,
begin to serve.”
