Prayer Poem by Half Past

prayer

let the heavens pour down showers upon them
may the roads be drenched and crowded
make their muscles and backs ache with effort
show her the mistake she is making
let her know thru your earthly display
that on this hour
on this day
when her friends pile the couch into the truck
when she pulls her pictures from the walls
when the old momentos are tossed aside
when carrying away her grief stride by precious stride
let her know the error she made
do not allow her memories fade
let her know thru these acts
that during these times
with these facts
all her efforts to move from the past
all her actions to change what was
all her efforts to run away
show her on this day
they all are just reasons more
why she should stay
