Candy and I have united with photography and poetry. These collaborations are a very small example of how perfect strangers can work together, be inspired by each other and share a passion for peace.

Life is delicate, intricate
Complicated, segregated
But one heart still beats
At the center of existence
One soul still strives
To be one with all
God didn’t put walls in the forest
Where eagles rise with the tailwinds
And chlorophyll canopies shadow dance
Over moss carpet floors
Morning glory knows no barriers
Roots of the gnarled oak
Venture out in every direction
Baring their bones to the sun
Willows welcome the lark’s sweet song
Arms reach out without thought
Embracing those that walk peaceful paths
Embracing those that do not
~
No shame in coming forward
Words felt and unspoken
Are like sweet petals in the wind
Voices transcend to resolutions
Presentation is communication
And you may be the missing link
In this daisy chain
Flags of two countries
Soaking in the same light
Equally burdened
Nuzzled by the night

There is a common ground we walk on
Dirt, sand, rock, mud
It doesn’t matter
It is the place for our feet to walk
To rest, to run
Where balance begins
To align our spine, our soul
A comparable posture
That life is hard
It can beat you down
To a place where
Hands and knees
Are only required
There is a common ground we walk on
Gravel, grass, ice, clay
The surface may vary
But the purpose does not
We march, we skip, we fall
To the drum of hope
To the sound of sorrow
In a global orchestra
Parading on pavement
For the same goals
The same desires
To live in peace
Or simply to live
mishunderstood
