Lest we not forget, in the heat of the moment,
Our logical minds and common sense,
Lest we not embrace, in those times of
Uncertainty, our unfounded fears and
Imagine demons,
Lest we not believe, in those moments of
Vulnerability, that our passion and energy are
Wasted,
Lest we not neglect, in the face of our
Enemies, our innate compassion and
Unrivaled love.
In these times of uncertainty, it is important to look through a wider lens, understanding, that those around us, our children and our friends, need to be reassured that their world is not unalterably changed and justice for all, will prevail.

Thank you for you lovely compliment. My daughter, LeeAnna, wrote that poem and has been writing prose, poetry, and parables since she was 10 years old! 🙂
