a single lilacby itself is delicatein force, breathtaking
thousands of blossomsare impressive because ofeach one by itself
two vines, intertwined the squash, the morning glory sharing the same fence
it doesn’t matter if were walking together we share the same place
there are some of us who seek solitude, but we don’t do it alone
we all could use a reminder that we are all in this together
we may disagree on some things, but we can still meet where it matters
only by sharing the attention can we see we’re not competing
imagine a world where the only season is a shaker of salt
when the cold winds blow good friends feel it too; and we’re stronger together
