I recently submitted my poem for Michael and Neha’s #PoetsForPeace project. I thought I would share it here, as well.
Thank you for asking me to be a part of your global outcry, for giving poet’s a place for communion and for believing in the fact that words have power.
May this campaign bare fruit universally.
Blessings to you both,
Audrey Dawn

Walk with me
With purpose
We shall not walk alone
Walk with me
Beside me
There is nowhere else
To go
Walk with me
Eyes forward
See what I see
Walk with me
Beside me
There is nowhere else
To go
Walk with me
Please
I crave peace within
Walk with me
Beside me
There is nowhere else
To go
Walk with me
And feel my hand
In vision those to come
Walk with me
Beside me
There is nowhere else
To go
Walk with me
United
Our touch remains the same
Walk with me
Beside me
There is nowhere else
To go
Walk with me
Be mindful
Our burdens not the same
Walk with me
Beside me
There is nowhere else
To go
Walk with me
We’ll listen
Hearts open wide
Walk with me
Beside me
There is nowhere else
To go
This is such a powerful poem, uniting people around the world ~ those in less fortunate situations understand and feel they are not alone, and then showing the truth by having those feelings met with real help from those who care. Wonderful words and your words do have power…

I’m glad the stanza stood out to you. It felt good to see that part there when I was done writing the poem. It affected me, too. Dan, I so agree. Thanks for reading. Have a great weekend.
