"Let me see again"

             “My teacher, let me see again.”
                         —Mark 10.51

Open the eyes of my heart
to see your grace in every moment,

to see with hope and gratitude,
with trust and humility.

Teach me to look with my mind as open
as my eyes; teach me in every gaze

to look and see as things really are,
not as I already think they are,

not as fear (mine or anyone’s) tells me to see,
but to see with grace as you see.

Let me see with the eyes of love.
Teacher, let me see anew.
