On a spiritual hold
Borne of believers
By traditional bold,
Be of meagre ethics
Held mystic of old,
Suggests invocation,
Said for nonbeliever
Be an offer of thanks,
In words that declare
An ever sober prayer…
Hence has us wonder
If sufficient be there,
Despite mans despair
For life giving water,
And breathable air!
Malgré tout ce qui va mal, we have a lot to be thankfull for, that’s why I celebrate Thanksgiving
D’accord pour ce qui va mal, et ton malgré tout…’tis wise to celebrate the positives of life, which in and of itself is a worthy prayer, for nonbelievers, and believers as well. Jean-Jacques
Excellent, JJ. Superb poem.
Thank you Paulette for your kind words… Thus giving a prayer, my prayer the consequence of not being for naught, dear friend. Jean-Jacques
