PRAYER

It can be formal with chiseled words - 

from a heavy ritual book with ribbons - 

but most prayers are screams from 

people all around the planet seeing 

a fabulous sunset or waterfall and

feeling “Wow!” or blurting out, 
"Oh my God!" or it could be a sudden

shrieked yell for “Help!”  in a car as

it’s crashing and smashing into the

car in front of it on Route 95 - or

just a  grandparent’s prayer for their

daughter’s kid heading off to college.
