Poem: Pray and Keep Moving

If I look up to the sky this way
Feel the wind beat around my face
Feel the drops of water
On my eyelids
On my cheeks
And on my lips

And if I stretch out my arms this way
And close my eyes
Its like I am flying
At the top it is glorious
And the belief that I can walk on air is
Believable
The excitement palpable

The steps leading upward
Carry me onward
No stopping and squatting
In the pauses where breaths take place
So that even when the sky falls down upon me
I keep moving
I pray and
I keep moving
