What Do You See?

Willow gave us a Magpie Prompt open to any interpretation this week. As I've been cogitating on one or two fights on the home front in recent weeks, I make no apologies for going soft on a global scale, and writing this as my contribution today.






Plea To Humanity

Build a human tower,
give it strength to live
and learn to work together,
to pardon and forgive
the petty altercations
that block the way to peace,
until a world emerges
in which all warrings cease.

  1. Thank you for leaving your comment on my blog - guiding me here I finally find out who Trellissimo is (I must have missed his arrival over Christmas, when the Real World activities pre-occupied an otherwise devoted follower!)

    Yes World Peace is a nobel cause!

  4. Soft?

    Sensible and a bit hopeful, I would say. Cad, do get that crazy woman to see the kindhearted fellow you really are. I am glad you two have given birth to Trellissimo.

  9. Caddoc,
    Did Mrs. Trellis buy it? Or did she tell you that you were soft. I think you are kind of sweet.

  10. Definitely what most of us wish for, yet so far off of what seems to be.

  12. I agree entirely! And this is not "soft" at all.
