January 2000

Milennium !
A new beginning many say - or is it?
Telling the future is a difficult task.
Sure is, that this is a time for many to consider and reconsider their life - their actions.
It is the time of dreams - and reality.
Happy new year!

To receive
you must ask
in gesture
or word
open your heart
and your hands

To receive
is no right
remember
receive
with awe
and give
in return

Spilling over with bitterness
jealous of our joy
you spread your poison
and venemous words
So that we may feel
like you do
For who can the difference
when we are all
>as sad as you
you will appear
as happy as we

Then go on in your life
with the blessing of friendship in your hands
and know that you are cared for, loved
and allthough your step falls heavy on the ground
and allthough your sky is dark
it is the same ground we are on
it is the same sky we are under
and never is the distance so great
that thought cannot bridge it

To create
the heartstopping beauty
of the rainbow
you need both
sunshine and rain
