Prayer 2025

When I am too weary,
or too ill, or too muddled to pray
I go to the lake's edge and sit.
Not truly a lake, a man made retention pond
born twenty years ago.
But grandmother oak and grandmother cypress
hold and remember my pleas.
With brother egret and sister heron
I stretch and release,
I ruffle and settle.
My word for this year: intercommunication.
Is that not prayer enough?

12 lines
prompt: a picture of a lake

The Herb Crafter's Tarot--6 of Air--Cattail--open yourself to new ways to pray.
