In our emptiness ~ filled with longing

     for surety beyond our doubt,

We pause, we bow, we breathe, we wait.

An answer: bestowed beyond our asking;

     a completion beyond our ego;

a ‘yes’ in the stillness of the Divine ~  

     we fall in surrender.

Into an ethereal embrace,

     transported further than ourselves,

we  join with Blessed Source of our being.

Our souls kneel in reverence,

     filled with splendor of the One;

prayers of  immeasurable awe stir our hearts,

     devotion prompts our spirit

in humble song, poetry, music, dance.

Transformed through God ~

     ecstatic hymns echo from heaven.

          ...prayer at the center...
