COMMON CAUSE

COMMON CAUSE

 

A number of my friends

Are mired in grief…

A close relative,

Who is tested in belief.

–

The latest one a colleague

Whose son just died…

She hugged me before she left,

His arrangements to decide.

–

Times like these we want to ease

Suffering amidst life’s pause…

Put aside different opinion

And comfort in a common cause.
