Thought
Magician skill diversions make
Mouths open amazed in wake
Sleight of hand coins appear
Waive of wand they disappear
Clap hands at illusions shown
Children happily leave alone
Knowing how tricks are done
Shriek excitedly at the fun
Short flash life's sparkle gone
Diversions of why whereupon
Of conjured magic filmy reels
Block thrill of what a child feels
Moon appears - so greet with claps
Flowers in pose for photo snaps
Sun’s face glows so raise arms high
Stop not a dance to analyse why
Glory to magician grand
Who is the ground on which we stand
Prayer
O Lord thank you for your appearances and displays. May my mind not be diverted from Thee. May I learn to see Thee through the illusion and enjoy Thy show with love unending.
