POETS AND PROTESTERS PROMOTE PEACE AND JOY
Now together we must calmly mend what most folks feel is broken
are words that poets and protesters have very rarely spoken
Yet that will never make these words shine less or be less true
Like please do unto others as you’d have them do to you
Today let’s share some daily bread and gently raise a drink
Fight to understand another’s heart to know what they may think
Meet to draw some wisdom from the data we devour
Ask why we leave out empathy as we learn to worship power?
Remember there are neighbors in every. Neighborhood
New ideas have rarely grown from shattered glass or burning wood
When we seek out common purposes and suggest options and choices
Then those we sigh to sway will more likely hear our voices
scream ‘I’m here to share my gifts” Scream it loud and clear
Expand to use the power of love and dismiss the power of fear
Expect each other to create more than we can destroy
Reach out and walkwith others as we all seek peace and joy
