Celebration

A revival in the heart of
our People:
emitting strings
of musical notes
strokes of color
and dancing banners,
and rays of light
swathing our people
in the far corners of the world,
and drawing them in
on cords of love.

this as we learn, again,
to dance
to sing
to paint
to sway
to the rhythm of
our single soul
to celebrate
faces upturned
to the brilliance
of a sun that rises
over the whole world
at once.
