Prayers
For The
Planet
The beauty of our planet is beyond question. Writing prayers of love and appreciation for The Earth and the perfection of nature is not only easy, it is a pleasure.
Winter Prayer
Season of the North
We give thanks for your mystery
When you prevail
We slam the door,
Turning against
Your howling winds
At night we dream of peace
When clouds bear us far away
Beyond the soundless snowfall
Yet when the door is opened
We must accept darkness
Brutal hunger, burning cold
Another world out there
Tucked away
We sit beside the fire
Watch the dancing flames
Tell tales of summer
Those memories
Flashes of laughter
Moments of sharing
Food, light and warmth
Are all part of the season
And so
We give thanks
From the heart
For the understanding,
The mystery,
The heat and cold
Of winter
Amen
