homemade prayers

August 16th

I pray for you:
Be well on your "adventure."
I pray whatever it is and wherever it is that you can just
"jump off the cliff hands open." **

(*from a zen saying)

I pray for you
out in the vast heavens.
I pray that you
are safe.
Hold our love for you in the soul of your soul
may other heavenly souls keep you with them.

"There is a candle in your heart."
                                     Rumi


A light that will never go out
you and your love
I pray on
I pray that my prayers are heard
and reach the stars that keep you
I pray that my prayers are heard
and send a sweet sound to
the heavens that hold you.
I find you in the silence inside my soul.

Bohemia lies by the sea
           Anselm Kiefer Painting
         quote from a poem by Ingebourg Bachmann

I keep wanting to return to the way things were Dad,
your hand in mine
your eyes looking into mine.
It is all a mistake
I want to say.
That utopia
has rested now
That heaven has returned to some other divine place.
Now Bohemia by the sea is in my mind


I pray for you
day after day
moment after moment
I pray for your love, your wisdom, your laughter to continue
I pray that my love for you lights up the night sky
sends the wind through the trees
and remains everlasting in this life and the next.


Aug 22nd

I pray
that love may find a way
to keep you with us always
