Oblation
by Elizabeth Rooney
I hope each day
to offer less to you,
each day by your great love
to be diminished until at last
I am so decreased by your hand
I am so decreased by your hand
and you so grown in me
that my whole offering
is just an emptiness
for you to fill
or not
according to your will.
