Spirit Upon Dust

We draw lines in the sand and pretend

we have created something. The Creator blew

Spirit upon the dust and clay

of this land and we awakened into sight

and sound and sensation. That is, if you believe the tale.

Use your hands

to build not destroy, to embroider

Love upon the landscape, to fasten

the crown of Peace upon every head.

Use your mind to dream goodwill into being.

Use love to deliver the dream to those who come

after you have returned

to dust.
