avoiding the mass
parishioners were grieving
loss of their pastor
he'd been caught in smoking grass
in the field outside the church

Fields outside the church
were covered with old tombstones
where the songbirds perch.
A feathered choir whose sweet tones
rise above decay and bones.

When power leads man toward arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the areas of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of his existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy



Kindness is a seed sown by the gentlest hand, growing care's flowers.
