Throughout our shared lives
As humans we rely on
Improbable hope.

Children know how to
Open their unguarded hearts
Like no one else can.

You in me in you
In order to understand
Me in you in me.

Unconditional
Love more than anything else is
Overpowering.

You in me in you
A common stream of virtue
We in us flowing.

Human compassion
Resonating our concern
For all other things.
