CHILDREN AT PLAY
Atlanta airport at rush hour
Frantic
Mad dash
Wild eyed
Full tilt
Three children playing together on the floor
Immersed
Gleeful
Innocent
For one beautiful moment
Time stands still
Strangers smile
Memories of their childhood take over
Skimming slivers of happiness as they watch
Multi colored faces beam in unison
Racial barriers are erased
Evil is crushed
There is peace on earth
When the children play
