Songift — A poem (14 May, 2021)

I come with a gift

A gift brings life

It brings not death

Words of sages

Soothing balm

Shields from evil

Scores of peace

Of man to man

And man to earth

Life for all

And not for some

— — —

Songs of sentinels

True prosperity birthed far and wide

They birth not fear

Melodies so mellow

Water on my skin

All nature sings

And sigh no more

Nature to man

And man to nature

Justice for all

And not for some
