I asked for His help

I called on His name

One of His many Names.

I asked not for myself

I sought help for many

And for what seemed insurmountable.

And as I prayed

I felt His presence wash over me

Calming me, soothing me, stilling me

Wrapping me in His warmth

Until all I could do was stop

And be still and feel His presence

And love Him.

(for Lord Ganesha)
