Prayer for a Journey With Sisters (a vilanelle)
Beloved Spirit hear my call tonight
No stars to light this darkness, stumbling on
I beg for my blind eyes some hope of sight
I dare not trust old friends to guide aright
For I would find new roads to walk upon
Beloved Spirit hear my call tonight
My call is desperate: see my sorry plight
Alone and cold and dark and trod upon
Oh bring to my blind eyes some hope of sight
But lo, here sisters come by candlelight
To lead me to a tent with curtain drawn
Beloved Spirit hears my call tonight!
Within the tent of red a glowing light
As warmth and laughter break the night forlorn
And open my blind eyes to blessed sight
So long alone I labored in the Night
But now I walk befriended in the Dawn
Beloved Spirit hear our call tonight
To all blind eyes bring this beloved sight!
