Deeds and Prayers

An incantation
she muttered,
in the cathedral,
the temple,
the mosque,
the synagogue,
the gurudwara
and the monastery.
World peace
around the globe,
prayers are answered,
but instant messages
are a no no in heaven,
the Creator has blessed us,
to help ourselves,
faithfulness has eyes,
humanity it practises,
blind followers of hate,
in religion's name,
helping hands of kindness,
rescue these prisoners,
walk them to light,
redemption is at the doorway,
nature takes its course,
a stream of rainbow,
feeds colours of
respect and love
to tunnels of darkness.
