Perspicacity

Prayers - Peace Prayer

By Ruth Williams

Perspicacity

WPerspicacityPlease give me vision
that can see the genuine article,
hearing that senses lies,
and a taste for what is substantive.

Please grant me a connection
to what’s pure and right and just.
Protect me from the disingenuous
and those with a hidden agenda.

Surround the young with good influences
and the ability to think critically.
Bolster them so they protect
themselves and each other.

Help them to stand for something,
so they don’t fall for just anything.
