I am human -
my mind is small;
much of what it wraps around
is of no significance at all.
Daily, I speak the language
of earth and of mankind,
so when my heart is heavy
and feels so confined -
I open up in prayer
like a flower in the spring,
no boundaries could ever contain
this purest of offerings,
soaring far beyond the sky
yet intimately told -
the simplest words of a loving prayer
change the seasons of the soul.
