Do Objects Die?
I still use
the things I bought
many years ago
the scissors
music tapes
shirts and dresses
My towel
how many times
they’ve been washed
gone through
the cycle
still functional
but wait
how about
people
relationships
so many are
gone
I wish
he was
My towel

Wish
May
we have peace
on earth
in our countries
with our colleagues
with our neighbors
in our families
with our relatives
within us
May
we have
healthy bodies for a good
life
the wisdom for a fulfilling
life
the power to empower the
weak
the strength to handle
crisis
the wisdom to choose
correctly
the self-esteem to guide
others
the self-love to love others
Free from ego
may we be
strong enough to bring
Peace!
