My latest for FVR sees me contemplating meditation and the importance of my faith. Quite a personal one started off in the first person but I liked the flow better in the third person, taking on a character freed up some of the sticking points.
Do you remember when the sun saved his life
When it literally saved a soul
Warmed his bones, and brought him home
Sat on the deck chair feeling nowhere but the sun called him on
Do you remember when the light lifted his eyes, to the skies
it revived and helped him survive
He ran for miles, round and round, creating the circle of protection around their house and around their mortal stones
Circle me, Lord,
keep protection near
and danger afar.
The words heard within, from above, below, a mantra, an invocation, a prayer for the salvation of his humble soul
