Enough

“Earth provides enough to satisfy every man's needs, but not every man's greed.”

~ Mahatma Gandhi ~

what we hug to ourselves

disappears

it matters not what it is

whether it be wealth,

which hidden in the bank accounts of the very rich

destroys not only the souls of those

who cling to it,

but those who in want

go hungry

and homeless

or love

which cannot live

unless it is shared

it is a sad irony

that

we suffocate

under the security blanket

of abundance and affluence

denying

both ourselves and others

O Sacred One

You designed us for giving

Calm our fears

Fill our souls and satisfy our hearts

with real food, real richness

that we might

open our hands

and give
