sighs too deep for words

low within us
a rumble, vibrations,
tremors, moving
prayers beyond us
what we could say, articulate
in sighs too deep for words
God, the Spirit interceding
going to God for us
a prayer from our bodies
deep within our souls
groaning unto God
when there are no words
when words will not come
the Spirit praying for us
our petitions unto God
