 The Weavers of Shadow and Light

 By, Myra Wexler Darwish

 

Intolerance weaves  

A poisoned web,  

Whose effluence  

Moves mankind to grief.

 

Love’s thread is woven,

With fiber so divine…

 That mankind joins together, 

Like forests lost in time.

 

The weavers weave with shadow or light,

 And expose to a wondering world, 

What lies within their hearts and souls 

Revealing joy or strife.

  

Humanity makes its choices,

And tries on the different vests,

But the heart in its infinite wisdom, 

Knows love rises above the rest.

Like your poem suggests, love is still everywhere. What is perceived as conflict and strife is now greater then it's always been. It's just now that the media picks up worst quickly and funneled to us. Controversy gets the attention. The infamous are as famous or more so than the famous.

This week, 190 countries got together and agreed on a major issue confronting our world. That coming together of nations is unprecedented and shows that agreement and love for our planet is stronger than conflict today.

Nothing can rise above love, that's a fact, for real love is divine!
Well done, Myra!

Yep, you are right in that love is the answer to life's blessings. Even so, sometimes, many times, love can bring on even more hurt. Still, we should never give up the search.
