Leena, a fifth grade student who has just published her first book of poetry, shared two chapters with us.
Nothing is Evil 8/17/2019
Lay your hands on love
And bless the soul of darkness
Because nothing is evil
Evil is the thirst
Of broken trust
Trying to quench its pain
From the open sea of life
Dream 11/10/2020
Enter the space
Beyond the thoughts
The energy of void
The graveyard of doubts
Enter the space beyond the pain
The fantasy of righteousness
The fallacy of shame
Enter the space beyond the loss
Beyond the wound
Beyond the cross
Enter the space beyond the struggle
Beyond the fight
With death’s looming bubble
Enter the space beyond the lies
The new, the old
Told by blind eyes
Beyond the darkness, beyond the fall
Listen deeply
Hear the call
The sound of the ancients
The tribe of truth
The echoes of source
The essence of YOU
