I have met many travelers
On my winding way
Finding common destinations
Or other roads to stray
At times we share each other's burdens
And sing a wanderer's song
We share what food we have
And are contented before too long
We acknowledge a gentle union
Of companions of the road
We have laughed and cried
at the strange stories we have told
I also meet the troubled
Who carry more than they can bear
And gladly give them the gifts I have
As others have taught me to share
For those that travel with me
And have become my friend
I invite them to continue on
To rest at evening's end
There is a pleasant inn I know
Where we can sip a fragrant tea
Made of rose petals and honey
And contemplate eternity

Poetry: Humanity
by Jon Coe
Crawling together, learning to walk
Communication evolves with words to talk
Tapping the arm and nodding the head
The planet
by Ted Onulak
I have met many travelers
On my winding way
Finding common destinations
Or other roads to stray
At times we share each other's
A trip through our cosmos
A visionary am I
Looking out over our galaxy
Seeing through my mind’s eye.
Pain, war, bloodshed
Casting My Net
I cast my net of anger;
it returned full of bile.
I cast my net of gossip;
it returned full of self-loathing.
I

Humanity
Born as a gift of nature
Opened by
The souls
Of charitable heavens
Humanity is in
Every soul
Which may open
In thoughts
