Breather
Everyone talking none listening
Pulse beating no life flowing
Many hands outstretched no one sharing
Where are we heading when all following
Pause! Take deep breath, look around, pause,
Take time to gaze upon the smile that spreads
From the eyes where it begins until,
reaches the smile to tips of the lips .
Under the green bough stretched
Eyes close, mind wide opened
Warm sunbeams strengthen while spectral
Stars, moon seen in the mounting insights
What a life it be with all care
But no time for any to envision
Taste the sweetness of touch
Touch of another vital soul.
What a life it be if humans love people
Praying for the sick, young and the old
People persist as people, people protect people
And why not live as the highest creation?
and seriously take our role as People!!
Shall we be WE?
