Prayer in a Night Wind




flicker flames of candles near 
dance out heartache, fend off fear
speak to me, through the trees
whirl through limbs, rustle leaves 
bend branches down to reach me
teach me faith, teach me, teach me
carry courage to my skin
wave my hair, lift my chin
dry all tears from my face
call me, pull me
take me home
promise lightness
to my bones
show me how
tell me now
speak to me 
through the trees
sing me answers
in a breeze

  2. Thanks Suz. It was real and was carried off and delivered in last night's wind.
