Today

Today I had a good lunch and in my heart

I hoped that all people could have lunch.

A big dog licked my toe and I wished

pure love for all of our children.

A breeze combed the shimmering leaves

and I prayed

that a blind man might see it.

A bird sang to me as I was sipping my tea

and I prayed

for sweet solitude and peace in every garden.

The funny thing was, that I felt no guilt,

for it is always guilt

that poisons love.

Today I felt love

that’s all …

There are nine billion of us walking on a piece

There is something you must do every day; it is part of

There was a time when you ran together and couldn’t stop
