Can Science Help Us With This One?

My dear friend Denise in Chicago wrote this poem yesterday in response to another poem we had shared during our daily meditation call. In light of Japan, Libya, the Ivory Coast and the multitude of legislative tugs of war, it brought me to tears, tears of joy and hope as I imagined peace in the many ways Denise shares.

Can Science Help Us With This One?

Can we insert Peace into the DNA of the cold virus

and create a world wide peace epidemic?

Convince McDonald's to inject Peace into a Big Mac,

Put Peace on the test that every third grader takes,

Require each state and federal government to have a

balanced Peace budget,

Drop a Peace bomb on all the major cities of the world,

And what about a captive breeding program for Peace -

Then fling open all the cages,

Can Science help us with this one?

---Denise Dignan

Thank you, Denise. May we all BE PEACE.
