#resilience conversation With My God! Poem by Umasree Raghunath

My dearest God,
When I stopped asking you,
You started giving me
Things I never knew
My dearest God
When I kept giving my best
You asked me to rest
Resting I never knew
My dearest God
When I had friends to share
You said life is unfair
Parting them I never knew
My dearest God
You gave me a child
With whom I was wild
Distancing that I never knew
My dearest God
You gave me wisdom
But snatched away health
Isolating dreams I never knew
My dearest God
You tested me enough
Ensure I raise in strength
The Power within I never knew
My dearest God
You push things dreaded
Testing my resilience
The strongness I never knew
My dearest God
You gave me utter silence
That thoughts fear to raise
My isolation I never knew
My dearest God
You often test me true
For that when I knew
That you are around me new
My dearest God
