An Entire Symphony (old poetry)

I asked for a small bit of light,
instead you gave me a full moon.
I asked for a blanket in winter,
instead you gave me the warm sun.

I asked for a pillow to rest,
you gave me an entire night.
I asked for food and drink to live,
instead I sit at your banquet.

I asked you to write me a song,
you replied with a symphony.
I asked for truth and words of hope,
you gave a book of promises.

I asked for forgiveness, just once,
a momentary cleansing of sin.
Instead you said, "I have taken them all".
