It Is Community

In a world that’s forever spinning fast,

Where strangers meet and dreams collide,

There’s something strong, that holds us near,

A gentle voice, we can all hear.

 

It hums in halls and sings in streets,

It smiles through every face it meets.

It’s found in hands, that lift, not break,

In the love we give, not what we take,

It caresses hearts and burns out hate,

It preaches inclusivity and puts diversity on every plate.

 

It’s glorious.

It’s giving.

It’s powerful.

It’s pure.

 

It is community.
