Through hours long in silent vigil,
ore her wounded warrior pray.

Nights so lonely, filled if only,
her brave and noble warrior stay.

May we ask the spirits favor,
with earnest words to intercede.

Lift up the maiden and her warrior,
In this their hour of silent vigil,
In this their hour of hopeful need.

For Marge and Bill

This expressively written prayer should have an "AMEN" at the end of it. So I am adding my own. ~ "AMEN"

This will mean a great deal to Marge & Bill.

Love & Light,
Linda

I strung my bow with the strings of my heart. Tied this prayer to an arrow then shot it straight to heaven's door. I know it was already in Gods Hands. I just wanted to put my two-cents worth in. :-)

You shot an arrow into the air
And it landed I know just where.
