Warp and Weft

Prayers - Simple Prayer

By Tanja Cilia

Warp and Weft

warp-and-weft-prayerTenacity is clambering up a waterspout;
adversity is a cloudburst from sweeping me away.
Perseverance is climbing back up–
bold in the face of a torrential rain.
Sometimes I feel guttered - washed out,
like it always downpours on my parade.
Help me give my life a new spin again
before this resilience wanes.
