Rosary Beads
a well worn, polished stone
witness to your deepest prayers
prayers for self, prayers for others
caressed between fingers
over and over
days, months, years of silent witness
one bead, one prayer
on to the next
stopping every ten to pray to the Father
and in between a mother’s comfort
held by anxious fingers reflecting an anxious mind
in search of peace.
Give God Your Yes
