His business
You might feel your pouch is empty –
nothing to give anyone of any value
but what others receive from you
is a happenstance beyond your decision or control.
Perhaps, your emptiness is the gift; your absence;
your rebuff; perhaps, your need, your cry for help.
Who gets what from whom is Baba’s business;
as is what your gift consists of
and the precise moment you will forevermore wise up.
Your disappointments, discouragement and gloom –
His business, too – as is every detail on your long,
rough journey from ignorance to Knowledge.
O child of God, everything
is a gift from the Giver.
