unanswered prayers

Nice one, Mark. Glad to see you on NaHaiWriMo. 🙂
I wonder if those prayers are “like the coins thrown by those who wished for something else…” (line from one of my fav. poets- David Whyte)
hope some of those prayers were not swept away; have a nice Saturday
much love…
That can be painful!
{{ oooowww !!
such a rich one, this !!
always know
that Truly Useful Prayers
will cling
to the smallest of rough edges …
thank goodness }}
🙂
Some prayers might find their way to the heavens as the wind picks them up and carries them away. Hope. A wonderfully reflective haiku!
Oh, I have a few of those. I hope the Sweeper is saving them for the just right moment to answer them! 🙂
Lovely composed haiku ~ life ~ thanks,
carol, xxx

What a bittersweet image, nicely done! Reminds me of the Garth Brooks song about unanswered prayers – sometimes it’s a good thing if we don’t get what we think we want at the time.
Oh, I sincerely hope not.
Oh my, this is so beautiful and powerful!!!
