Praying Wonders

Silent thoughts, secrets Held long and hard, like favorite Toys, squeezed tight by a small Child’s hands, embraced As tenderly as the whisper Sent to ears by lips Who love as sweetly, as gently As the praying wonders Stirred by a truth Brilliant as the blue In a sunlit sky, the music Enthused by a heart who is Bruised by starlight’s glistening Beauty, passionate and proof That God still holds everything Together, in strong hands Where even the seasons know His authority rules, controls Every breath, each caress, even The senses who cause hearts To feel and to care, to listen to… Passion and wisdoms brought to life By dew trickling silently Against the bare petal of a faded Rose who seems like a flyer Announcing the rousing hopes Abandoned by doubt, Comforting spirits with reflections And memories brought to life On the thoughts of one who knows Every prayer is an expression of courage Who sends the King of Kings, The maker of dreams The promise I believe in… A prayer, both wonderful and trusting, Wishful and rusting from the Days it has spent in the dark sea’s depths Where salty tears and pestiferous fears Try to calm the music we will Dance to, the melody that springs To life, in silhouettes of light, Shadows of grace and embers burning Away every doubt with a faith That remembers the heart, the soul… They know what it means to feel peace Because God’s love is like a flood of joy Erasing the darkness with feelings So alive they touch so deeply, So completely, like they’ll forever be… A part of this mystery called love, This wonder, a hope, a prayer Astonishing even the wildness of A heart who is genuine, authentically… God’s child, His creation – the one Who yearns to be with Him forever, Eternally blessed by His presence!
