Rejuvenation

Fling the doors open And let out the stagnant air Open the board up windows It’s time to breath fresh air. Sweep out the dirty corners And prepare for a powerful rejuvenation Gather the dust in a bundle, Empty it in the Pacific Ocean Then dip four times in the Atlantic Ocean. Take a stroll along the corridors Look your enemies in their eyes and Greet them with a victory smile Salute them with your mystical love And set ablaze their self-inflected flame There is no doubt about this You will go down as one of the bravest Solomon the wisest you the greatest And victorious one Sound it on the mountain top Across the rippling desserts Walk through the market places The inner-cities, burnt out villages Busy streets and crowded towns Visit the little old lady in the tattered house Located on the deserted side of town Shower her with hopeful words Your presence alone will embrace And nurture her weary soul Make your way to the orphanage, Wounded warriors and the struggling ones A simple touch with your powerful hands Will answer the prayer of the weeping ones. Go to the schools and colleges With words of comfort and love Stop over places where you are not welcome And radiate them with persuasive sentiments. All some people need is a can of beer, a cup of hot chocolate or good cheers . Disperse the spirit of hope, Perseverance and good expectation And when night comes Walk in the streets and sing Sing with timbrels and cheerful songs You are an inspirational icon for everyone. Your rhetoric’s are strong, use it to move along. Use what works best for you Negotiations or forgiveness And climb straight to the mountain top With a hammer, a sledge or a cable car Ropes and boots or just the magical you Silence the poisonous networks Give them something to talk about Lift up your injured wings and start to sing Join with the throng of angels in the grand jubilee You are strong and ready to fly again. Tarry no longer because you have won Raise your banner And wave it high in the sky You have just defeated your enemies With compelling love And your gigantic wings. ©2013 Christine Phillips

this is a magnificent message. I sometimes have "types" of poets I identify with soup. there are the funny ones, the mystical ones, the nature lovers, etc. you seem to be the "humanitarian" poet with great wisdom to offer!
