Premium Member Prayer

P rayer is my posture —

   R elegating all to Him.

      A men from Alpha to Omega.

         Y our mind, movement and mouth,

            E ver prostrated, as He lifts you up.

R emembering you, you and you in prayer…

Within Her Arms

The love of a mother is so strong,
  not to be compared to anything else.
She prostrated to the ground 
sobbing, 
 trying to swallow the bitter truth
  of her only child,Annette.
Within her Arms she held her tightly,
 and in her eyes you could see 
 pain,sorrow and emptiness
 of a mother losing her only child.

Hell In a Handmaiden Basket

He hath become religious of late
prostrated before the virgin Mary
Cornflower blues blown to wild violets
and thin lines puckering in concentration

Prayers spilling in loud sputters from his mouth
She hath listened a time or two
to testimonies led by callused hands
Run lukewarm holy water upon him

Coaxing gentle promises from cold maidens
candlelight vigils by the goose feather altar
Ordered 10 Hail Marys, and 5 Our fathers
and she bled for both of their sins
