Prayer

I prayed for food and I prayed for rent, I prayed for these things to be heaven sent, I prayed in the morning and I prayed at night, To help out my brother and the mentally ill in their plight, I prayed at my job site, I prayed at the dinner table, I prayed that men should not kill like Cain and Abel, I prayed against war and slavery on every shore, I prayed for the victims of criminals, the lepers , the poor, I prayed and prayed until this very same day, When I received a knock on the door, " You have not my money! Then you must go away!"
