A Tweet To Pope Francis
from Mare and Joe, Magda and Jes, Clare and Frank
From this Heaven
With sincere thanks, care, and in the Peace of Stillness
We write
As calm, beautiful, and gentle as the flowers and the animals
As silent as the blissful breeze that caresses your genuine smiling face
We join
To teach, recommend and request
On this glorious day of Suns, Stars, and Moons
Cardinals soar swiftly by
Red streaks that flit across the cloudless indigo blue sky
Pairs of lovers
Singing the song of passion and contentment
Filling our ears with sweet tweets of love and joy
Industrious gleeful squirrels scurry and play
Defying gravity
With innate skill and deft confidence
Fearlessly scaling trees and clinging upside down and sideways
To the walls of pebble-dash houses and bird feeders
Prolific, shy, soft and furry
Rabbits court
And carefully scoop the earth for their protective hutches
With meticulous detail and focused skill
Readying for the coming of their young
They honor all
Include all
And recognize all from the newly born to the passing
Dedicated Parents, they ARE
Voicing their truth
Nurturing their young
And gifting each other with boundless essences of the divine
They thrive
Holding the female in full partnership
SHE is
Nourisher
Creator
Wisdom-keeper
Decision Maker
Lover and Companion
Each has her place, beside
Revered as the womb of creation for their species
They have lived for millions of years
Changing and adapting
Accepting and loving
In this Heaven
Compete, they do not
Serve unconditionally, they do
We notice that you ARE like them in your life
In some things
We humbly ask you to follow their lead
Honor your girls and women with equal respect and status
We did
And it has made all the difference
In our eternal joy and harmony
With the highest, purest, and deepest love,
Mare, Joe, Magda, Jes, Clare, and Frank
