Portrait

Faces of

a changing world

The struggles

and pain

of a hurting

race

We need humanity

more than pity

It’s sharing

that humanity

with the oppressed

A virtue

and choice

of the beauty

that still remains

Diversity

Dive of imagination

Passion and vision

Believe you can…

Rare Moments?

In a complex world

too difficult to understand

in those rare moments

the grains of sand

in the hourglass of time

we may see ourselves

as human, sometimes beautiful

reflecting on life

relevant in a hectic

insular world

striving for excellence

perhaps even perfectionism

sometimes trying

to understand life

all in good time …

How Beautiful …

The smiles that win

the eyes that sparkle

a heart whose love

is tender and passionate

In beauty and grace

so calm, a life

thoughts serenely expressed.

~

Like a red, red rose

sweetly perfumed

and music fills with pleasure

a love in truth

a life in truth

the best things in the world.

Celebrating Hope

Their story in creative song and dance

abandoned, abused children

show their gratitude

for a myriad of mercies

of love and hope

to remind us

of courage and perseverance

and never to despair.

~

Their moving message

touched hearts

and stirred emotions

to reflect on the difference

we can all make

by showing love and giving hope

to these precious lives

because we have the capacity

to love, care, don’t we …

in some way?

A Thought For Humanity

Truth and integrity

liberate

the voice of conscience
