Goddess of Mercy

Goddess of Mercy

The water like a lively friend
Coaxes the leaves to unwind
I lean and breathe in the steam
The heat encircles my tired mind
I lift the cup up to my lips
And sip the warm honey tea
She sweetens lifes bitterness
The Goddess of Mercy
On a mountain far from here
Lives a quietly standing tree
That gives the gentle leaves that hold
The whisper that awakens me
I lift the cup up to my lips
And sip the warm honey tea
She sweetens lifes bitterness
The Goddess of Mercy
