A Wonder Of Mercy

by Spiros Zafiris

kind forces nudged him awake,
just when he was to part once more
They somehow acted on Their own
a rare occurrence, indeed
what happened, here, is this:
They kept him alive for his mother's sake
she had passed her share of tests

we must fill his hands with morning songs
this compact will deliver,"
They sang and sang

maps of harmony They were
