My accountant says that for each credit
there must be mandatorily one debt,
and next to the assets it must be shown
its corresponding liabilities.
Economists say there is no such thing
as a free lunch and to each profit fatally
will correspond an equal loss.
So have been moved the heavy wheels
that carry our chariot through the ages.
But we know that our Creator’s accounts
do not close like this.
All of us are His lovely sons and His grace
covers and heals all days of our earthly life,
without any of our known limitations,
without our proper acknowledgment
and regardless of our faith or merit.
We are His sons and His is this world,
ours the grace of so unquestioning love.
