Surely

Surely

Surely,

as light follows dark,

we will emerge

from this time

with an acknowledged

connectedness

and keep it

in daily awareness.

Surely,

through the fears we’ve faced,

we will have

a more acute sense

of where we are

in the scheme of things.

Surely,

our prior arrogance,

thinking we had

dominion and license

to forge ahead

gave way to humility

to take forward.

Surely,

this virus as catalyst

changes us,

reminds us that

as guests and stewards,

we are in service

to a greater consciousness.
