Morning Prayer
God, be the wine.
God, be the bread.
Be the warmth in
my morning coffee.
God, be the swirling
memories of last night’s
love without guilt or shame.
Be the warm that
takes my broken heart and
makes it new again.
May I see your face in the
pulsing flow of the loves you provide.
May I feel your presence in my love's embrace.
God, may you find me unashamed of
my humanity, thankful for this flesh.

pulsing flow of the loves you provide.
May I feel your presence in my love's embrace.
God, may you find me unashamed of
my humanity, thankful for this flesh.

Author's Note
Not one usually given to prayer, I wrote this to the unknown of my existence. I called it God in this poem.

Can't do better than reach out to God. Love this verse:
May I see your face in the
pulsing flow of the loves you provide.
May I feel your presence in my love's embrace.
God, may you find me unashamed of
my humanity, thankful for this flesh.
Reminds me of a 1970s song by Irish singer Val Doonican (who has been mistaken for Andy Williams when in USA), "Heaven is my woman's love". You express the song's kind of sentiment from a female POV.
