Dear All of Us,
Most evenings
I wind up the day with
wine sipping prayer.
For anyone
stunned sober
shocked,
I got the idea
from Jesus.
Jesus prayed
Passover wine sacred,
transforming it into a
Holy Communion
as he concluded
not just his day,
but all the days
of his life.
My prayerful
SOUL SIP
signs off
a day of significance,
a day of suffering,
a day wasted,
a day of mystery and marvel,
a day hot out of hell,
a day too much of not enough,
a day brilliant blitzed,
a day needing tomorrow reset,
a day of divine settlement,
- days more than
this spot and space
can bare.
Wine or without,
our day late last
prayer
tastes twix
bitter to blissful,
mellowed clear
to
blurry fogged,
even fouled.
Now, my
Wine Sips
are vintner,
Trader Joe's,
Coastal
at $5.49
a bottle
- definitely a deal.
The real deal, though,
is that day late
last savor,
that Holy Communion
letting God
guide,
soul free,
spirit inebriate -
confront, clear, clarify,
console, repair, refresh,
recenter,
snuggle.
For the wine wary,
there are,
breath prayer,
prayer beads,
day-end guided meditations,
Ignatian Examen,
sacred setting music,
walking meditation
and lots of lots.
However we
Spirit Savor,
may we all know
a last late day
Holy Communion -
Then
"In peace
I will lie down
and sleep,
for you alone,
Lord,
make me dwell
in safety."
Then
"When you lie down,
You will not be afraid,
your sleep will be sweet."
