Hope you don’t mind if I re-visit a poem/prayer written six years ago.
Today will be like no other day
in the long journey of creation.
The sun will appear,
people will come and go,
laugh and curse,
rejoice and weep.
A bird will sing from
the laurel bush, and
the mountain will look
out over the brown desert.
I will pray for human
understanding and kindness
and feel a stab in my heart
at the depth of our insensitivity.
But this day will be like no other
because today I will hum a tune
and hear your harmony in my
soul. When I walk through the
garden, I will see your smile
in brilliant colors and soft
shadows. I will speak your
name in the wind, and the
world be embraced
in blessing.
To the Christ of Life. Amen
Shining Spirit 
It will work again six years from now.
