to pray is to know
that we come and go
like clouds moving
across the landscape of our lives

to pray is to join the pleas
of our endangered wild relations
in the hope we will awaken
to the power of harmony

to pray is to listen
for the voices of wisdom
calling us into the future
with the old ways

to pray is to enter Mystery
willing to be unsure but
certain of the sovereignty of Love
