The Prayer, Monotype of the Day #233

Posting by midnight tonight! Sybil for the win! 😉
The act of creation is a prayer

Praying
by Mary Oliver
It doesn't have to be
the blue iris, it could be
weeds in a vacant lot, or a few
small stones; just
pay attention, then patch

a few words together and don't try
to make them elaborate, this isn't
a contest but the doorway

into thanks, and a silence in which
another voice may speak.
