Two Gifts and A Poem

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 resist
Unsocial media.
Wishing a more humane human made system
Had manifested.
And then, by chance
Here i am
Seeing the posts
Of the remarkable humans
I have connected with
Over the years.
And I am inspired
Intrigued,
Informed,
Still connected
Through ideas and ideals
Visions for a just world
Achievements and insights.
Thank you all, poets, musicians
Activists, builders, critics, political wranglers, seekers of justice, seekers of wonder,
Like the trees in the forest,
We nourish each other.
