Every Time I
(you, we)
Every time I
Feel the
Spirit
Moving in my heart
I will pray
But I like it
When it moves outside
The heart
Also
Not as proof or evidence
But as
Communion
That spirits are merging
Venning at least
For faith
And sometimes simply for
Delight
Then spirits
Move
We sing and dance
Among the trees
And you wonder from
Where those
Strange lights
Come
In the woods or
Over water
Or horizoning desert
Ridges
Where there might be
Air
Or other medium
For breath
Bursts that
Might be daunting
Maybe
Also invitation
Dance with us to
Say
We move as lights
Be moved

prayer in a circle
at the table
or
while standing
anywhere
x
it’s beautiful
attaching words
to statements
supplications
even
questions
with our doubts
x
the prayer is over
we are stronger
knowing
something to affirm
and in a kind
of pledge
to do the next thing
with spiritual
aplomb
and just plain niceness
(yep)
to each other
as the circle visually
fades
to purpose

Dance Again

What shall I do today?
Well,
There are things
How is your day
So far?
I hope it’s good
You should have a good day
And another
They should string along
Like lights above the porch
Because
There’s a party
An accumulation
Friends
Good food, good things to drunk
When we’re a little tired
We’ll sit
Under the lights
Under a combing of the stars
Pushed closer
Just for us
Your day should promise
All of this
And more, of course
i don’t know exactly what
Is on your list
Or if that matters
Gifts are free
And you should have this day
Like a gift
The cost of grace
Yes, spiritually
Maybe a bit in style
Good things for free
Good day
Good day

[photographer’s story] Whilst I was taking this picture opposite Saint Paul’s in London, a few people stopped to ask if I was a paparazzi and if I was taking a picture of someone famous. This made me chuckle!
[maybe we could all meet there]
