Its a prayer to the omnipotent to shower His blessings on my mate.

A HEARTFELT PRAYER

O Lord! My Heavenly Father! It’s me again;

Who invoke you for some great gain.

Here I place a mammoth plea for my mate,

Shower your blessings and alter her fate.

~

The hurdles she faced were hard to bear,

Your silence all these days though not fair.

Nothing good happens was her constant cry,

Words were scarce to wipe her tears dry,

~

Like a summer tempest comes now an offer,

To lift her hopes and set things proper.

O Lord! Embrace her with your tender grace,

Touch her with a magic wand to win the race.

~

Let all the barriers and thorns be parted,

And life’s pretty, velvet roses be granted.

Kindly lead her way with your eternal light,

And lift her to reach magnificent height.

~

O LORD! My Lord! Grant her the best of all,

This is my earnest prayer for my beloved pal.

Let her life be perfect  with no marks of stain

O Lord! My Heavenly Father! It’s me again.

That was so heartfelt. I could sense the desperation in it. I wrote a prayer/poem as well, called "An Addict's Prayer." You should check it out. I think you might like it. Phenominal job on this. It flowed very smoothly!

God answered your prayer, but you are deserted, I caught that in your comment to Entity. A great prayer/poem.

A devotional masterpiece, which is composed from the most honest depth of the heart. Truly speaking, once I finished it, I also silently prayed for you and the person for whom this poetry is written.

Truly inspiring piece of poetry which lifted my spirits and re-newed my faith in God via prayers.The power of prayer is much underestimated,"God always gives us what we need", though to some they think that he doesn't listen when in their hour of need they need his help the most.

AMEN to your prayer.
Very Good keep up the great work,.
I am commenting because you asked me to,(Yet I am sure I would have found your work sometime?)
Your line,
"Your silence all these days though not fair".
The Lord answers our prayers,.
Do we listen? To Him, His Voice, His chosen ones, writings?

May be you can come by sometime and leave comments on some of my work too?
I know India.
Blessings,
In His light & love.
