Its as if we are newborns
unable to walk and survive on our own
unaware that the treasure
of our heart
is all that is needed
to move beyond this collective infancy
no wonder humanity wears
the diaper of Religion
for God is truly our father
our model and protector
the great teacher
and Goddess is truly our mother
our life and and safety
where expression is born
the great nurturer
and like parents that allow the young child
to fall again and again
while learning to walk
God & Goddess give us this space
to commit our human atrocities
again and again through out centuries
in patient silence
we are urged to listen
to the beauty of the human heart.
