“A Prayer,” New Era, Sept. 1998, 26
A Prayer
A prayer, two smiles,
a familiar door.
A plan, a truth,
help them understand.
A whisper, it’s right—
do they feel it?
A glimpse, a hope,
a young family in white.
A step
“Will you … ?”
A leap
“We will.”
A burst, an embrace,
smiles and tears.
A prayer, hearts dance
with the snowflakes outside.
