THE GREAT AMULET
“To love is the great Amulet
that makes this world a garden.”
-Robert Louis Stevenson
Thy love O Lord
What great and gracious
Charm this be
That wards off all
The evil one may send
And purchases for us
Thy calm serenity.
Hang gently round our necks
O charm of fragrance sweet
Make of this evil world
A refuge and retreat
And cause the winds
Of pain and sorrow
Waft rose petals
At our feet.
