Notes About The Poem

In Our Little Corner of the World

We have no control over many things that across this planet have unfurled…but we can control the way we think and act in our little corner of the world.

Here we have some command over the world we’re trying to create…for instance our corner of the world is so small…we have no room for hate.

In our little corner we want every person to know…from wherever they travel…near or far…they will be always be welcomed and accepted here for exactly who they are.

In our little corner of the world love is simple…love is kind…
In fact with kindness and simplicity is how our little corner is designed.

Reading is simple in our little corner…here we read each other’s eyes…it’s where we find our truth…it’s where our happiness lies.

Math is simple in our little corner…our feelings we do not hide…all our sadness is divided…all our joys are multiplied.

I guess what we’re trying to say…what we think it’s our destiny to do…
when you enter our little corner of the world…
is, simply, to put a little love on you.

So no matter what has happened in your past…
no matter how your life has previously unfurled…
we hope you will find peace and love and comfort 
in our little corner of the world.
