Meditation on Psalm 2

O Mommy dear, who loves me through and through and delights
   in my every breath and step and word:
Why do I shun your love with self-doubt?
My toddling dance, which is wondrous in your sight,
   becomes clumsy only when I turn away from your love.
My attempts at wisdom become foolishness when I keep you at a distance.
My plans are a blessing in your holy chamber,
   yet become useless without you.
A hastily spoken word becomes harsh outside your care,
   yet remains sacred when carried on the winds of your spirit.
Happy am I when I remember you.
