People Pray With Wishes Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

People Pray With Wishes



People pray...
With wishes to have comfort.
And a having peace within their homes.

People pray...
With wishes to have comfort.
And a life to live that they condone.

Fresh air to freely breathe.
And conflicts left to leave,
Alone.
Most people want this.

Fresh air to freely breathe.
And conflicts left to leave,
Alone.
Most people want this.

People who pray,
Wish for themselves a comfort.
Without a fighting going on.
And living to have peace,
With others to know it...
As shown.
Most people want this.

People pray,
With wishes to have comfort.
And a life to live that they condone.
To know it can exist,
Without a selfishness...
Now known.
Most people want this.
That's why they pray with wishes wanting it.

People who pray,
Wish for themselves a comfort.
Without the fighting going on.
To know they can exist,
Without the selfishness...
Going on.
That's why they pray with wishes wanting it.
Without the selfishness,
Or conflicts that exist to move on.
Most people want this.
To witness it from dusk to dawn.

People pray...
With wishes to have comfort.
From dusk to live it until dawn,
Forever.

From dusk to live it until dawn,
Forever.

From dusk to live it until dawn,
Forever!

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

The repetition is the galvanizer in appreciating the impact of this poem...All you say above is true, and sadly...as a whole we pray for things we want as opposed to prayers for others needs...As always, an erudite work a la mode, with your occasional abstract cherry on top...You Rock, Lawrence! ~FjR~
