Excerpt From the Compilation Prayer, Number 6, Time For Our Elders

Excerpts from the compilation: “Prayer” 6: Time for our Elders I wish that we take Time for our Elders, Even before some of them slowly slip away. And that we can forgive and let go Of some of the ineffective, inappropriate and unsuitable Beliefs and lessons that they received And passed on to us. And that we can understand That they need our loving patient care and appreciation. And that a World without Grace, Gratitude, Respect and Dignity, Is barren, un-bearable and life-less. And that we can learn About the beauty of aging And not be afraid (Like we don’t fear the passing of the seasons), So that we are able to fiercely Treasure and live each moment, Regardless of the weather, To the full. © Sangeet Portals 2020
