May it Come
May it come
like a warm wind, like a gentle breeze,
may it come,
as soft and deep and tender
as a mama's love.
like a sweet wave, may it come,
rolling across the lands
pouring over us all,
drenching our souls in its peace
and filling our hearts
so full with its love
that we find ourselves turning,
turning toward each other,
as with new eyes finding
no man who is not our beloved brother,
no woman who is not our beloved sister,
no child who is not our own cherished one,
no living being who is not family to us,
and no place we might stand
that does not feel like home.
