Exhumed A danger lies in ignorance in fear of things as yet unknown The answers? here...within your reach Look closer past the words you preach With open heart enabled mind Listen...I beseech thee... Learn... For should you stay the chosen path - remain in darkness preaching light - content in lack of understand Humanity is lost... So dig... Unearth the mustard seed renew its trust in sanctity A pocketful of faith in need Now turn the stone there underfoot What lies beneath? The ash and soot of those condemned for nothing more than holding true to that which in their hearts they knew So different, they, from you and me? Are we not sisters...brothers...free to live our lives in harmony unharmed by those who disagree? Look...see the similarity? They bleed... So dig, I plead...yet deeper still For buried there beneath the rock the bones of lessons long forgot Now brush the dust from Golden Rule reminding us that tolerance need be renewed in present tense and love, above all things, exhumed -Vicky L. Raynes *Repost...lest we forget... "When the power of love overcomes the love |

"Now brush the dust from Golden Rule reminding us that tolerance need be renewed in present tense and love, above all things, exhumed" How appropriate... |
