Contemplation is like
Learning how to float
In a pool of water
A process here to note
Clinging to the side
Hanging on in fear
Developing a sense
Of confidence now here
Learning how to trust
Slowly our feet lift
Gently letting go
We begin to drift
Into the unseen
Letting trust flow through
Presence in the water
That is supporting you
A process of learning
Of trusting to share
In an unseen presence
Likewise to, in prayer
