We all have stories, these are mine. I tell them with a heart full of love and through eyes of kindness.

These Faces

These faces before me
Warm and happy,
Inspired in their simplicity and joy.
Their comments and
references are from cartoons 

No pretense.
But plenty of pride.
Though it’s checked at the door,
For the most part.

These are my people.
Hearts and feet
From all across this land
Bringing thoughts
And habits
From sea, to shining sea.
And beyond.

What brought them here?

Were they born aloft by
The Spirit?
Or was it financial?
Family?
Love, in any case.
Love for self or another.
What a powerful force,
Transcending time and space.
And in some cases transporting
Us Across the face of a planet.
This great spaceship earth.

These faces before me
Are friends.
Earned through sacrifice,
And Laughter.
Sharing.
Making Peace
A bond of brotherly love
A pure place
Where gain is measured not in fiat,
But in experiences shared.
Persecutions suffered.
Successes won hand in hand.
Love deepened.
