Prayer

I lift a prayer to the stars hoping it will wing your way. 
We sit under the same starry scope even though we're a world away. 
I pray for safety, I pray for God to hide you, I pray for sustanence
Of all the dreams, hopes, struggle you go through. 
We are knit into this same family of God by bonds of friendship. 
They carry cross the miles and years because of friendships 
Strong tie. Bonds which are not broken even if it is a different sky. 
Stars stretched across the space of the vault, infinite in number. 
Yet strung together to tie the bonds of family worldwide. 
So we may pray and know ourselves to be connected 
By the frame of the stars in the night sky.
