The Forty Second, Feb. 11, 2011

Listen, dear friends... do you hear it?
The cheering of a people reaches out
the end of a regime has come
once again Egypt has been born anew

now we see the infants struggling
with new beginnings long desired
let the night echo with their cries
and may the world share their joy

Now is the time to stop our day
taking time to offer a prayer
to whatever God you believe in
that the dream of peace comes true

  1. The innocence represented here makes me nervous and uncomfortable...they are an ancient people. They have revolted. Please let them not be innocent in anything but their joy.
