breathing in, <br />i take in the pains of hunger, <br />the ache of loss, <br />the despair of homelessness. <br /> <br />breathing out, <br />i exhale oneness, sameness, <br />and peace. <br /> <br />breathing in, <br />i take in prejudice, hatred, <br />fear, and anger, <br />and the blackness of greed. <br /> <br />breathing out, <br />i exhale forgiveness, <br />understanding, and compassion.<br /><br />Eric Cockrell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/morning-meditation-3/
