Grief

Prayers for the morning,

prayers for the night,

prayers for your loved one

who’s now taken flight.

Prayers for today,

prayers for tomorrow,

prayers for the grieving,

prayers for the sorrow.

May you always find ways to share

and give your own lives more fully,

knowing that the love you had

is not just waiting for you

at the edge of earth and sky,

but also wraps and comforts you

in every moment here and now.
