All We Need Now.....


An epidemic
of calm, sympathy, grace
urgently needed
for a world lost
in its superficial stealth of living....

An epidemic
of healing rays
roaring, wrestling in its wake required
for people posing picture perfect...

An epidemic
of positive energy needed
to destroy the dreaded virus
murdering precious values...

An epidemic
of luminous love required
to clean grudging wounds
and prejudiced reflections...

Precious values fading out is truly a cause of concern.
May we be afflicted by the epidemic of positive energy and luminous love to get rid of this virus.
