early morning


“In the morning, while it was still very dark, he got up and went out to a deserted place, and there he prayed.” Mark 1:35

how quickly we can
find the prayers when
our team needs
to score, or
we have to find
a parking space, or
they are wheeling
us to surgery,
but
in the silence,
in the loneliness,
in the shadows of life,
in the early morning’s doubts,
we cannot seem
to put two words together . . .
