for richard-shepherd
you read my prayer,*
deem yourself speechless,
but a prayer is just a prayer.
and most go unanswered
consider it more like a, movie review,
looking back, looking over, the cast,
the backdrops, the love scenes,
the Epic finale, all that jazz,
but don’t be speechless, never be that,
be like always writing
for every poem here is a prayer,
some of gratitude/some with attitude,
write to find your latitude.
the intersect with the inner
long-attitude;
some prayers,
like weather forecasting ,
occasionally write, mostly wrong,
but the prayer’s long life is assured,
once it is worded, committed from lips
to the white blank sheet, so others my read it
and say
****
Hallelujah!
Amen.
and
where’s my pen, ********* 🤭
end.
