Prayer of Life

Life is precious
Each day upon waking
I am amazed.
God has given me
More time for the journey
With many cross roads,
Many sorrows
Many joys.

I pray the journey has
Not been in vain.
That what little contribution I made
Was sustaining to someone
Whether human, animal or creature who came my way.
When I tripped over I know
God picked me up and
Dusted me down and restored me to new paths.

The world seen with new eyes
Which are no longer blurred,
Colours dazzling.
An entrancing vision of life
Which all can acquire.
