Sunshine Prayer
atIt’s summer, time to laugh and dance and enjoy life. Here’s a prayer for the new Prayer Book. Hope you enjoy it.
May I have pals
That can cultivate the art of the giggle
Without being completely blotto
May the dog sing me a Mozart aria
And the cat laugh at my jokes
May the Lord of Laughter
Award me the world’s best toffee apple
And the teeth to go with it
May the Lady of Laughter
Transform my luke-warm wit
Into something blooming legendary
May the sun tan my toes
And the moon light my way to the playground
May I be adored by angels
Praised by the wise
And given a free pass to Glyndebourne
Not to mention the Amex
Please let the Tories go away
May Reform re-form on Alpha Centauri
May the Labour Party show compassion for once
May Brexit become a figment of my imagination
Let the sun shine on me
Without giving me skin cancer
Let the moon inspire me
To write better than wot Shakespeare did
May I love and be loved
By all those I love
And a few more besides
And may I enjoy being
And non-being as well
Now and forever
Thank you
