I Said a Prayer
I said a prayer for my fellowmen,
The world needs people who’re
Gentle, kind, fair, want the same
For self and others too.
I said a prayer for my family,
To be trusting, loyal, honest,
Supportive, understanding, defending
Branches on the Family Tree.
I said a prayer for old time friends,
Now having thoughts different from
Yesterday, where loyalty, interest
In same things erupted the atmosphere.
I said a prayer for acquaintances
Once sharing ideas, future plans;
Have we all met them in the self same way,
Or did agendas drastically change with time?
I said a prayer for Christian selves,
Who having been born not of woman,
But of Spirit under the Blood of Christ;
Striving without bias to do the best we could
I said a prayer for lower creatures,
The land and universe in which we live.
Care-takers we all are of God’s Earthly Gift
Of life to live down here!
