Play to Pray

I don’t know exactly what a prayer is today

Yet I do know how to creatively play

The curious seven year old in me 

Is as lively as I allow her to be

I don’t know exactly if I’m praying like you might 

Yet I do know my wonderment delights

The joy of it from my heart resounds 

Bending time until the NOW rebounds

I don’t know exactly how my prayers matter

Yet I do know they quiet the worlds chatter

The rising voice of higher Self can be heard

And there is always kindness in her wise words

I don’t know exactly what prayers will come to play

Yet I do know how to welcome them each day

They might want to dance, paint, or sing with me

And tomorrow perhaps a silent game of poetry

I don’t know exactly what a prayer is for ALL

Yet I do know how to offer up the call

Prayers should be whatever you need of heartmind

Experimental play! hide and seek until you find…

Blessed be the freedom

to uniquely & universally pray
