Poem: We Prayed Today

We prayed together

You and I

Though not an “Our Father” or “Amen” was said.

For “What is prayer?” we queried.

We drank our coffee face to face

And shared our love of God

            

And words

We took great joy in the sharing

            Of vibrant trips,

            Artful events,

            Family concerns,

            Books and beauty.

And as we shared

Our Lord was there

            In our midst

He took delight in our conversation,

            Noted our concerns,

            Felt our passions.

Yes, we prayed together

            You and I

For what is prayer

            If not

            This?
