I was asked to write a welcoming poem for a Black History Month gathering on Sunday Afternoon.
Welcome to our celebration In the name of Jesus Christ our Lord Who fought hard against prejudice A recorded in His Word. Jesus loves the little children including all of us today Red and yellow, black and white As we work and as we play. Let’s give thanks for Dr. King, Rosa Parks and others of fame And for all those other heroes Whom many do not know their name. May this time of celebration Draw us closer to each other And may it help us see our God In each sister and each brother. Please send us from this gathering To be a sermon with our life And make a powerful witness To confront our world filled with strife.

That was fantastic and right "on point." Thanks so very much. I will read it at the Black History Celebration at St. Luke AME Church on Sunday February 26th and give you credit for writing it. God has given you so many gifts.

I sat outside a store and became aware of the flower pots in front the store and I thought how it must feel about the attention given to the flowers.
