I Pray

I PRAY EVERY DAY,
I PRAY EVERY WAY.

I PRAY FOR HOPE,
I PRAY FOR HEALTH,
I PRAY FOR MY WIFE,
I PRAY FOR MY LIFE.

I PRAY FOR FAMILY,
I PRAY FOR FRIENDS,
I PRAY FOR THE WORLD,
I PRAY FOR MY SOUL.

MOST OF ALL...
I PRAY TO HEAR GOD,
I PRAY TO SEE HIS LIGHT.

Very nice. Gen. 2:7 "Man became a living soul" . He wasn't given a soul, man is a living soul, a living person. So you prayed for your life twice. I'm going to go read more of your poems.

Thank you, Barbara-- actually, I almost lost my life on more than one occasion- but far worse was when I almost lost my soul. And yes, the soul, one's unique being, personality, is endless, eternal, but--as I found out the hard way, a very hard way-- if one forgets God, it can become terribly lost.
