All prayers are acknowledgements.
God hardly hears or responds
To words of prayers that do not sound
The deeds and motives of the praying.
When I do my job the way it should be done
Where is there room for prayers then?
We look upon God to get the mettle
To do a thing that is not up-to our will.
A job well done is the best of prayers:
Like loving the ones who need to be loved,
Helping the ones who deserve to be helped,
And visiting those ones who need our presence.
They are prayers; that are gauged by all Gods.
All our prayers need to be telling our Gods
That what we need is not what we plead for
But the time and discretion to do better.
To love, to help and visit, the same way we love
Our Gods, help HIS will and visit HIS premises.
