The Lilac Bush

One day I came close to giving up my ghost;
I put my chin inside a mouth of knotted rope!

But instead of stopping, my heart began to fly;
A dove perched on my shoulder, and whispered in my ear:

"Each day God comes home with lilacs from His bush;
He picks them all for you, His chosen darkling thrush."
