Prayer ©

 

Meditation.


Or if you prefer contemplation.


These long periods of

welcome, sometimes peaceful

sometimes disturbed

yet always profound silence.

 

Are in themselves a revelation of the

touch of holiness, of presence.

 

Quietly the cold descended.


Time loses credibility

A healing occurs, hurts are mended.  


Closed eyes open briefly


Returning to graced moments chiefly

 

Shivering I shift my feet.


Breathing in the atmosphere

of the church,

my sanctuary

adorned gateway to the sacred,

where fear evaporates;

the heart at prayer is quite complete.

 

Surrounded by devotion.


Bringing to unspoken prayers the value of emotion


Alone yet surrounded by the blessed company.


Ghostly whispers from times past

good men and women the saints

on pilgrimage with me, a journey to accompany.

 

A divine mystery floats in the air

cloudy with Sunday’s incense  

as if memory reveals

an eternal yearning.


A continuing

a fleeting remembering

before quickly to heaven returning.

 

A safe haven

where love is discovered in

Its truest fulfilment.


A vocation to be

loved, to love, called and sent.

 

Conversations discerning wellbeing

Rising from earth’s floor to heaven’s ceiling

 

Words uttered in gratitude


Sensing the immense magnitude

 

Experiencing the magnificence


Head bowed, to take in the ambience

 

Praying is not escaping


Not floundering

or the barrel of despairing scraping,

 

Praise of God the Father, Almighty!

 

It restores the purpose

extracts the vision

exacts with simple precision

the necessity of that virtue of humility.
