My Wish For Every Human Being: A Poem

My wish for every human being

That you may feel the tender kiss of a lover on your forehead,That you may witness the uplifted faces of those singing prayers to the heavens,That you may know the comfort of a mother's shoulder when the world is too cruel to bear,That you may recognize the deep love in your father's voice as he sings you a song,That you may feel love infuse your cells as you eat a meal prepared with you in mind,That you may hear, see, the presence of angels blessing you with light and courage,That you may listen to the land and animals as they teach you, as is their deepest wish,That you may look to the moon and the ocean for comfort in your darkest and coldest times,That you may feel your heart dance as you gracefully carry out your purpose for being,That you may delight in the pleasure that vibrates your senses, as you taste and touch and hear and smell and see the bounty of our Earth Mother,That you may feel the strength and unrelenting support of your ancestors as they journey by your side,That you may know for certain the Divine Love that bonds every man together without exception,That you may remember why you came here, and lay your head down in peace.
