Walk Gently

We have to walk in a way that we only print peace and serenity on the Earth.

Walk as if you are kissing the Earth with your feet.

                                                                        Thich Nhat Hanh

We must walk gently on this earth

Let we destroy that which gives us life

We must walk gently

Through our souls

Kissing our souls with grace and love

Caressing and healing the wounds

We must walk gently

Through our days

Too often we are like

“hit and run” drivers

Mindlessly trodding on those we meet

Leaving wreckage behind

Yes we must walk gently

As if kissing the earth with our feet

Other’s ears with our words

Other’s hearts with our compassion

We must walk gently
