A Prayer..

Bowed is my head..

folded my arms..

my world has no sorrow..

it inflicts no pain either..

mine is a sacrosanctum of happiness and melody..

but its lost somewhere in the sea of human misery..

and therefore my soul embraces this simple prayer..

that of humanity..

Author's Note

thank you Abhijit..the suggestion for the use of 'melody' was his..the original word was 'glee'..

Reviews

The poem is very nice and the concept is well expressed , the only thing I can point out (though I may be wrong) is that I am not sure whether glee is the appropriate term here . If you are not using that exact word here for any particular reason , you might consider replacing it with some synonym .
Once again , a very nice read .

I like this. The writing and the message are both moving and inspiring.

Prayer is a powerful thing that can make a person feel whole again! Well Written!

i second abhijit .. the word 'glee' seemed a bit out of place .. apart from that the prayer is indeed an innocent one .. seems as if it's coming out of the pure and golden heart of a child !!

prayer is such a simple moment of time and yet the enormity of its reach can have an earthly effect...you have that within your Soul...

nicely expressed...

Beautiful, simple, and innocent. Not ignorant of the strife around you, but it is untainted by it. This is a blindingly pure writing that inspires readers to hope for their felow men. Touching.
