My world
Surrounded by other worlds
Everybody else’s world
Their worlds
Like but not like my world
Common ground
seems smaller every day
Common home
a world to see, to save
Common hope
something new,
what some call normal
never was, never will be
Common love
one heart
beating a rhythm
toward
Common destiny
My world, your world
Sharing moments
On our way to
Common LIFE

I like this; it’s really good when you find common ground with someone — and maintain it 🙂

Thank you, John. Yes, and the maintaining can sometimes be the tough part… but it can also be the most delightful part! 🙂

Hey, B!
I like this!! I am not sure why, but this reminded me of when I was a child in private school. It was a Catholic school and there was this one song we sang in the morning this one year, and I don’t remember any of it expect this one part. It has always stuck with me.
‘The will know we are Christians by our love’. Somehow your poem reminds me of that…I didn’t understand it at the time, but I knew it was true and important…and I think it looks a lot like this!

Yes, I sang that song a lot back in the day, too. “We are one in the spirit, we are one in the Lord, we are one in the spirit, we are one in the Lord, and we pray that all unity will one day be restored, and they’ll know we are christians by our love, by our love, and they’ll know we are christians by our love.”
wooHOO!
