While it's certainly preferred to use reverent language in prayer, I have to add something...

I've prayed bawling my eyes out much akin to a dying hyena while speaking in garbled teen slang many a time, and my prayers were answered just the same.

It's important to give our father the respect he surely deserves by using appropriate language and addressing the lord a certain way, but a prayer is a prayer is a prayer and I don't think you are going to be ignored if it isn't done in iambic pentameter or something.

Just some things to think about.
