Array ( [sid] => 2025 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => GIve Thanks [time] => 2002-08-09 10:19:51 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I start my nightly prayer
Before I go to bed at night
To the elements who watch me
Until the first light

I give thanks to the Fire
For burning away the pain
The heartbreak and distrust
Thank you Fire

I give thanks to the Air
For giving me my needs
The life force that sustains me
Thank you Air

I give thanks to the Earth
For supplying me with crops
Of happiness, family and friends
Thank you Earth

I give thanks to the Water
For quenching my thrist
Of knowledge and power
Thank you Water

I give thanks to the Spirit
For filling me each day
Bringing me closer to the goddess
Thank you Spirit

So I end my nightly prayer
By giving thanks to the faeries
Who watch me and Dragons
Who gaurd me tonight [comments] => 1 [counter] => 163 [topic] => 11 [informant] => yellow_sundragon [notes] => [ihome] => 1 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => ChristianPoetry )
