I am praying with my body
life speeds up in a frenzy of email and phone messages
breathe, slow down, sit
Walking along the Front Range breathing in
ponderosa pine bark vanilla
I am praying with my speech
speaking real experience
breaking the chains of
money, time, things
Speaking words with power to heal
I am praying with my mind
remembering the power of intent, caring
light and heart pour out over the Great Plains
spilling in all directions
praying
I am praying with my hands
holding your hand I remember
this is a gift of love
from the heart of the universe
every moment precious
I am praying with my heart
holding you dear
you who are my mother, brother, sister, father
like this we can balance the world.
