good Friday evening

IN lands far and near in our

quest for peace, our lives
are touched with the pain
and sorrow of our fellowmen

FOR does not the same sun
that shines on our backs
shine on thiers as well?

OUR same moon glows on
their sleep

THE same ocean waves
throb and beat

AS we pray for PEACE!
LIFE goes on until time
empties into space

FOR after all between
life and death isn’t this
just a stopping place?
