One Prayer
Awake!
Mind’s eye tracing the shadowy path.
Images of life dance across the
Screen in my head.
Noise!
The voices cry, they sigh and weep
as I gnash my teeth for questions
unanswered.
Praying!
Save me-them-my children!
Family, friends, so many!
Who will I forget?
Torment!
Grips my soul, my heart broken.
Can’t breathe-will I die
of fear?
Epiphany!
What if I should pray
simply for peace, healing for All,
the mending of ego’s dark rift?
Focus!
Not on each but on the whole of life.
For if Spirit in flesh be healed
all prayers shall be answered.
Pain. Darkness. Fear.
All shall disappear before the Light!
Miracle
