One For All

One For All

A Poem by Mauricio Montoya

One For All


First cause,

brought unity,

for the light of the world.

Supreme being,

hence forth wisdom and knowledge.

Our cause,

mercy,

with understanding

The spirit of truth

For all mankind,

To up hold and preserve

The fruits

That give the bread of life.

Your words show the man you are, giving and caring, no matter what life throws at you. Like Ron, I wish with all my heart that someone would offer you a place you could call home; you deserve it because trust and hope are always at the forefront of your writing, there's never bitterness only a sincere bright light.

Our first duty is to love and treat others like we would want to be treated. Even the poor and neglected deserve the same. Valentine

Interesting synthesis of your experience. I'd like to hear more about what you think of this poems words and concepts. You've distilled it here, presented it, but I want to hear more about these concepts from you. Thought provoking piece.

It is good to see the better qualities of man. I have never dined at a rescue mission. This unity I wished all of mankind shared and abide by the same good will. Nice write.
