Polytheist

One comes to love the little saints, As years go by. One learns to love the little saints. 'O hear me sigh, St. Anthony, Find this for me, I wish you'd try.' There must be many garden gods, A gardener sees. There'd have to be an orchard god. 'Divinities, Take honour due. The long year through Protect these trees.' The Mother and the Holy Child Are friends to me. I pray, 'I am my mother's child. I trust you'll see That days are bright And all goes right With her and me.'
