Morning Prayer

let noise drift swiftly swirling away on angry grey clouds let troubles tumble into rough winter waves while I exhausted joyfully breathe your name-- Hashem* let the pain of ten thousand wars be soothed by Your balm let the glory of a thousand suns break through the sky dazzling reflection of the Holy Spark within each of us-- Blessed in Your Image let me follow the grace of Your guiding hand let me learn from the wise words of those before me-- see Your face shine in each magnificent creation-- lend my hand with pleasure where need cries out in gentle whispers. Amen. Amen. Amen. *Hashem--Jewish word for G_d V.Anderson-Throop 2014
