Breakfast reading

Breakfast reading

"sterile prayer pierces heaven." Theresa of Avila

So as a song
is transformed
when bonded
with a lover,
so a prayer
changes
when it moves
from words
on the page
to a letter
from a close
friend
read in the
light at
the window
with a hand
over
the heart--
I imagine God
as the reader.
