Pared-down Prayer

Day 24 PAD Challenge. Prompt: A "prayer" poem.

to keep calm, carrying on, in spite
of--what??

no matter--herewith
some small supplication for the
barest of necessaries--clean
food, drink, shelter, safety from harm,
freedom from want and fear

peace in sleep, satisfaction in
our various labors and
all else will follow,
sure as night trails after
day
