Unanswered Prayers

take in what you wish for

The greatest gift
Can sometimes be…
Unanswered prayers

Life composed…
Then unexpectedly exposed
as a labyrinth of layers

For what you pray today…
could be The opposite of…
your prayers upon the morrow

And the granted prayer
Now wished undone, becomes…
A source of new found sorrow

Take care in prayer
Intone it wisely…
waste it not, I pray of you

Take care in what you pray for
For your prayer…
just might come true
