PRAY

Are you blessed with the magic gift?

Can you rise and compose a prayer?

A symbol of hope,
The genuine sound and flavor,
Make a persuasive case,
For the sake of fantasy?

Let it shine,
And scream,
And beam with joy!

Sing with ecstasy!
Contagious ecstasy!

The dream shining through,
As a lure,
To rise to it!
To at least try a bit!

The attempt being all we have access to,
On a regular basis…

Let it catch on,
And spread,
Like a shower,
Of refreshing promise!

Do you have the strength,
To compose such a prayer,
While being down,
And trodden upon,
By life’s quirky glitches,
Your own expectations,
Your own shattered dreams?

Do you have the strength?

Then go ahead and rise,
And dream for us all!

Sing for us all!

Help us all,
See some light,
And hope,
Even if it all be an illusion!

At least it will alleviate,
And numb,
For a while!

Give it a go,
And may god be with you!

Amen!
