Larry Robinson––Prayer––poem
Prayer
Do you really think
that God cares
who wins the Super Bowl
or the lottery or the war
or who gets the parking place
or the promotion?
Don't waste your prayers
asking for special favors
of the One who has given
us our days and our nights,
our time on earth,
sequoias and poppies,
blue whales and blue herons
and - even more - each other.
Here is the only prayer I know
worth the breath.
Say it with me:
Wow!
Thank you!
Amen!
- Larry Robinson
