A Green Light Prayer
Bogged down at a red light.
At Ascension cemetery and St. Mary's drive.
I gazed at a graveside service.
The mourners spaced few and far between.
Mostly in black and still as wet granite.
All were COVID-masked... properly.
The newly departed performed social distancing-flawlessly.
My prayer was answered when the light turned halo green.
