Action Speaketh
It’s really a busy day
with confreres coming over
for a meeting, an encounter;
yes, it’s a beautiful moment -
a way to get reconnected.
However, it’s also exhausting
to be in full swing of movements
driving to the airport, running some errands;
a real picture that’s painted in these days.
Oh, some complaints and criticisms,
can still be heard and learned
from those who always spill
their remarks against one another.
Humans as we are, yet we still forget
our individual differences
matter in our quest for running streams
where God’s spirit reigns therein
the wholeness of being called a confrere.
It must be a jarring departure
for someone who’s got a closed world,
opaqueness in some other ways
that relationship with others therefore,
needs to be deepened and challenged.
Signs of hope can be traced here
along with pains and difficulties,
though our attitudes reveal
in situations normally shared.
