To Be As One

Each day I wake to see the sun
                    To feel the breeze, to be as one
With nature’s world to feed and heal  
                         So grateful for all that I feel

To feel its love in simple things
       The tree that shades, the bird that sings
The honeyed bees, their nectar sweet
                The crickets dance, to tap my feet

I am amazed that I may live
                   With such a gift there is to give
And so I pray I may deserve
                      Another day that I may serve

What can I do to make this place
                     A better home, a better space
For all to love and know the sun
                         For all to feel, to be as one


One Human Family

That should be our main prayer: all joined as one family. Will we stop to kill our brothers?
