I’D LIKE TO HEAT OLD BONES WITH FIRE

This is a poem I composed to address the POST SANDY RECOVERY EFFORTS Nov 9, 2012

Please listen to the lyrics of “Id like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony”

I’d like to heat old bones with fire
A constant licking warmth;
I’d like to tent the darkness out
And light an oil lamp.

I’d like to hold a lost scared hand
And grasp it close with love;
Grow food to share and pets to care
And twinkling stars above.

I know you know just what I see
All company so soothed-
It spreads a hope that future holds
The best that’s shared improved!
