without thorns
by Micheal J. McAnally
We will not leave the practice of our faith in the pew
We will not leave our practice of mindfulness on the meditation cushion
We will not leave our practice of peace on the prayer rug
We will embrace what we profess,
We walk and speak as if we travel on a path of roses
gentle each step
loving in each word
aware of others
walking mindful meditation
manifesting kindness and love
without thorns…
