Our daughter and LiveWire 4 left this afternoon after a brief and lively visit. Behind were left two special gifts made for us – a bracelet in Suffragette colours and a colourful Happy Easter card. 
A Facebook friend posted the following poem yesterday and gave me permission to share. I found it very touching and love her play with words, ‘unsocial media,’ the ‘humane humans’ and especially her thanks to all creatives and activists. The last two lines are a call to us all to remind us that we all rely on each other. Nourish each other, people, nourish! Thanks to Deasy Bamford for this.
Most days i resistUnsocial media.Wishing a more humane human made systemHad manifested.And then, by chanceHere i amSeeing the postsOf the remarkable humansI have connected withOver the years.And I am inspiredIntrigued,Informed,Still connectedThrough ideas and idealsVisions for a just worldAchievements and insights.Thank you all, poets, musiciansActivists, builders, critics, political wranglers, seekers of justice, seekers of wonder,Like the trees in the forest,We nourish each other.
