A Poem I Wrote

Unheard of and curious. 
A distance cry.
"Beautiful!" I declare. 
Beautiful humans, 
sharing this universal love; 
"One Love," sang Bob. 
Sun dried symbols creating co-existence. 
I read it on her face; 
I read it on the bumper as she sped past, 
sowing seeds of hope 
that "one day we would all be equal." 
And Martin preached. 
And then a man marched down the street 
waving his striped flag 
bearing the colors of the rainbow 
with a smile so wide he could wrap the entire world 
in one large embrace, 
and hold us all 
repeating the words he read from a great book 
of a humble son, 
"love your neighbor as yourself." 
Peaceful warriors...non-violent actions...souls of humanity...pioneers of equality. 
All of us, 
teachers if we so desire. 
Ignite this passion spoken of with such fortitude
with the courage of a mighty army of peaceful soldiers. 
We, 
the creators, choice-makers, fear conquerors; 
let us demonstrate our compassion for all;
From the far reaches of our soul, 
let us gain strength through the intimate connection 
we cradle, 
for a cause we call Love.
