Night Time Meditation


Night falls

slight breeze in the air

trees and flowers are swaying

time for the evening prayer


Using a flammiferous match

the candles are lit

the scent is pleasant

all senses are hit


The prayer plant joins me

leaves lifted to the Father

resting from the movement of the day

with reverence and honor


Thankful for blessings

and freedom from strife

grateful for protection

and water that gives life


Thankful for a spirit

that is allowed to dream

experiencing life in abundance

flowing with the stream


Finally, for being able to fly

and spread my wings

knowing no matter what happens

You are with me in all things

  1. The part about spreading wings and taking flight, really hits home with me, metaphorically.
