Corona To Karuna -- A Poem

Mar 22, 2020, 1 comments, 10 smiles After seeing ServiceSpace community's KarunaVirus.org response -- it was just such a brilliant notion -- this poem just flowed out of me. Rashmi from Manzil Mystics may set it to music, and I'll keep you posted. Thank you for your continuing inspiration. Corona to Karuna Corona is the name they give to separation’s cost Change it to Karuna and seek what has been lost What compassion’s hearts now do, as heavy as they be, will make moments together to help each other see What we’ve put off now daily in the busyness of life We must reclaim with others to end the endless strife To see us each as human in our common need, to cure and grow equality with love its only seed Our mother’s love a fundament by which we all have grown humanity is vested here to all this must be known Intimacy and trusting, cooperation’s gold the light of all intelligence we human beings hold. Take the time together now, and help remove the veil of stories that have never served, and let love’s light prevail. Corona is the name they give to separations cost Change it to karuna, and seek what has been lost
