Dark is the universe
Dark is our world
The entire earth
in a black death
the yang
to our previous yin
I guess;
yet, we still love
sharing sparks of shining
bright bits of who we are
a mostly caring race
and
the flowers
still bloom.
In these dark times, I listen for the bright times, I remember the love in my family and friends, I find the sparks of humanity that strive to make it better, and enjoy the beauty that is around us. I hold each of these close to punch through the darkness and know that we are all in this together, helping and holding the future in mind and heart.
Like Mr Rogers said, “Look for the helpers.”
Prompt: In sad times, we find hope. What is your hope and how do you discover it?
