Creator prayer

You of the Great Breathing In:
           Aahh! We praise you.
You of the Great Breathing Out:
           Yes! We thank you.
You who swirl us in your interstellar dust:
           Alleluia! We glorify you!
You who well up your ocean currents in us:
           behold, we serve you.
Hand of all the world’s great migrations:
           Holy One, we trust you.
You who move in threads beneath the roots:
           Beloved, we reach for you.
You who fruit forth in a million varieties:
           we feast on your grace.
You who spark the Life Force in all things:
           we listen for your voice.
You who speak “Let there be light”:
           let us be light.

The guest

It is as if
you came home and there he was,
a stranger sitting in the room meditating.
At first alarmed, then annoyed,
and then resigned, you let him sit,
because he didn’t seem to be doing any harm,
and there was that light.
You never really knew what he was thinking,
but he was smiling, and the room was warm.
After a while you rearranged
some of the furniture around him.
Then you took most of it out,
except for chairs for the people
you invited over, to sit with him.
Later, in your house full of light and mystified guests,
you hardly noticed that he wasn’t there any more,
his smile on a hundred faces.
