This Body, A Prayer
Published in

A poem of gratitude
Miraculous creaturely warmth
sustained in the red music
of heart’s rhythm,
a translation, a transmission
each breath cycle,
blessings and signs
gift transformed to offering
generous without effort
the infinite space
between palms as they meet
hands rise, for all the many reasons
they might rise
bow, embrace, step whimsically,
grateful feet on the earth;
being in stillness, being in silence;
surrendering completely in sleep . . .
This body, a prayer.
