One

David P Cronk

With best intent
Here to include
A piece I wrote
To shift the mood

A smiles light
Extended hand
An olive branch
For fellow man

Our goals we share
Our needs compare
A calming voice
When no one's there

Built with pride
Without divide
No fractured bond
No other side

We must be one
No other choice
Our will, our might
Our fearless voice
