dream of Peace and Joy

What a dream I had

Shining faces, alive in choral ecstasy

Brilliant, dazzling trees,

decked out city squares,

festive dwellings

Gathering in congregation, we, the people

who live to feel connected -- in touch, in tune,

protected within our radiant web of care --

to share gifts of love, goodwill, amiable peace,

uplift of joy that brings

warmth to this season.

Imbued with vital revelations

-- the pain we each tend in isolation

was never meant to be our fate

Let us mend

troubled minds,

unkind separation

Let us rejoice in communal celebration

Let our true world arise, reflect in glowing eyes,

unite us in empyreal Light, of our own creation.

* * * * * * * *

Humankind's oldest wisdom, newest

truth -- the magic of connection,

enduring bounty of engaging commonality

Step out of lonely isolation, into a shared

reality, that vision of community, greatest

source of security when we are well known,

accruing value of appreciation for our

participation in creating

good works, good will, good friends,

merry moments
