Pray
Are you happy?
Pray
Are you sad?
Pray
Are you
On top of the world?
Pray
Are you
In the bottom of a pit?
Pray
Are you
Joyful
With a new born?
Pray
Are you
Torn
With a loss?
Pray
My mother prayed
Through wars
Through peace
In darkness
In light
She prayed
Without ceasing
With tears
Streaming down her cheeks
She prayed
Always ending
‘Not my will
But your will be done’
She prayed
Until her heart stopped
Mother was 92
