Touch and Go

life is a game of tag
though we tend to play it wrong
we only ever want to  pat, nudge along friends
when it could be even more fun to turn the whole wide world into a playground
making it a whole lot brighter

pass along kindness
at times you won't get very far before you're it
at other times it will be a long ways
but we won't care, just laughing along
for we will not be seeking sanctification
but joy
Touching hearts with goodwill
as we travel our journeys.
