Praying Hands

Why do we hold our hands as we do When we pray Is it relative to our thoughts I hear us say Is it so that we can see the children’s hands So they don’t play Or is it in reverence or a gesture We do each day. Palms together has been a ritual for many years So where did it start and why I might ask? Is it gesture of pleading, that our prayers are heard that we are up for the task,that seems absurd Maybe it’s the look of a favour being asked Because of this position I might be observed As in the Yoga position, mentally centrical therefore I can say that observations are in accord the palms together does emphasise the meditative, pleading, respect of most cultures alive.
