In my inner self,
I have my hands together at my heart,
In gratitude for you and for everyone.
I look at you with gentle eyes of love.
I may or may not be smiling,
As the waves are passing by,
On the surface of my being.
Still, underneath this façade,
My hands are together at my heart,
Grateful for your presence,
Grateful for the simple things,
This love, this friendship, this touch, this warmth,
This food, this family, this home, this Earth.
This sense of belonging.
Thank you for being here,
And for accepting me.
Beyond this veil,
Our hearts are united together in prayer.
