A Prayer

Sometimes, a moment is sacred

There is worship in the way I brush my teeth each morning

There is holy water in my coffee cup

When you look up

From a long walk into the wind

And suddenly see beauty

And the bottom of your shoes

Worn from all the miles you have walked

Are a talisman of your pilgrimage to class and back each day

The crush of your boots in the snow

Is a mantra worth repeating

And the sunlight as it slants through your window

Is a sign to continue
