Remembrance and Peace
Thank you and may there be Peace
I desperately want to remember everyone who fought and died
I desperately want to understand all those who fought on the side
And those who wouldn’t fight

A prayer for violence fasting
Beloved
Here we are asking

Arrival – a meditative prayer
Please relax
We are entering states of arrival.
You are invited to imagine

The exciting arrival of the new born
PAUSE
The stepping off the plane on holiday

The unexpected rainbow.
PAUSE

PAUSE

The uniformed one stepping onto another nation’s land
The ever opening heart
Thank you great mystery
For relationship
Thank you planet
For touching the mystery with me
Thank you
You and you all of you
For waking in the mystery too
An ever opening heart
Every day a new start
Supreme Love inspire
This chasm this vision
Taller deeper wider
In this Great Mystery
May we always
