Sonnet XXV I pray for you and yet I do not frame In words the thousand wishes of my heart It is a prayer only to speak your name To think of you when we are far apart God has not need of words. he hears our love And though my lips are mute I know my head And He leans to listen from above And understands the things that are not said. For love is prayer- and so my prayers for you Mount upward unto Him eternally. They are not many and they are not few, All are as one that ever seems to be. Thus do I pray for you and cannot say When I begin or when I cease to pray. - Mary Dixon Thayer
