_Stopping Prayer_

It’s past midnight,
 I lie in bed Discussing the day gone by With my Maker, But 
I must learn To stop prayer too At the right moment, In thought that is, And in 
complete silence Merge into Him/Her So that with the morn Begins yet another chance
To honour Him/Her Who gives us this cosmos To serve, enjoy and conquer.
