Fuzzy blankets
Replaced by
Tumbles of gloriously warm water
Cleansing my body
And also my soul

Darkness so quiet
The tiptoes of the cat
Guide me through space
To the teeny-tiny bulb
That lights the way

Pet
Feed
Pet again

A hug
A prayer
I love you

Now quiet settles in again
As the room envelops me
Gently ushering in the words
Creating the prayers
Embracing the Grace

Guide me,
Show me,
Open me,
Empty me,
Love me.

On the rooftop
The mourning dove responds
Cooo cooo cooo

Guide me,
Show me,
Open me,
Empty me,
Love me.

Cooo cooo cooo
