What I Pray


One day our pain won’t lay the rules
Light fills every room
Kindness catches on

Hunger is not a norm
Selfish acts are unseen
Goes on to be ignored

When I pray

There will be an end to war
Power isn’t a payment for evil
Shadows lose their darkness
The world will be out of the gloom

I pray

Love is for everyone to hold
Bitterness disappears
And there is hate no more

Beautiful George. I know it is heartfelt...I share those prayers. It is wonderful to see you post.

I am a bit behind...too much attention distracted elsewhere including work . All of that is ok. I may come and go for a bit with blogging.

Hope your weekend is easy and flowing and filled with the small pleasures you enjoy
